Delta State Police Command smash armed robbery, kidnapping syndicate in Delta State
The Delta State Police Command has recorded another major breakthrough in its campaign against violent crime, following the arrest of a notorious armed robbery and kidnapping syndicate that has long terrorised residents along the Asaba–Benin corridor and adjoining communities.....TAP TO CONTINUE READING
The Police Public Relations Officer, Bright Edafe, disclosed that the operation was triggered by a distress call at about 6:30 a.m. on 23 November 2025, reporting a robbery in progress around the Dustbin/Mango Tree axis of the Asaba–Benin Expressway.
Edafe said the Commander of the Eagle Net Special Squad, SP Danyaya Inusa, responded swiftly and mobilised surveillance operatives who teamed up with personnel of the Nigerian Hunters and Forest Security Service, led by DSP Abu Joshua.
But what began as a rescue response quickly escalated into a violent confrontation, stated Edafe, who added that the armed gang ambushed the operatives with “sporadic gunfire,” prompting the team to engage with “controlled precision” before overpowering the criminals and forcing them to flee.
“A hot pursuit ensued, leading to the arrest of three suspects — Oghenemaro Martins (25), Tarebi Miracle Ogbada (22), and Okorie James Kalu (19).
“In the course of the chase, the suspects abandoned a black bag that later became a crucial piece of evidence. Inside were an English-made Beretta pistol, a locally fabricated pistol, four live 9mm rounds, an HP laptop, several phones, a PS5 game console, jewellery, and other items linked to earlier robbery victims around the Okpanam–Asaba axis.”
He said the recovery establishes a clear chain of evidence tying the suspects to multiple violent attacks under investigation. All three are currently in custody, while investigators continue to profile their network and possible involvement in kidnappings reported along the expressway.
In a separate operation barely 24 hours later, the Command intensified its clampdown on cult activities, arresting three suspected members of the Aye Confraternity in Sapele and Oghara.
Bright Edafe disclosed that the police acted on credible intelligence. Operatives of the CP-Special Assignment Team (CP-SAT), led by ASP Julius Robinson, conducted coordinated raids at about 5:30 a.m. on 24 November 2025.
The team apprehended Miracle Umukoro (52), Mudiaga Ukavwe (31), and Solomon Oghoro a.k.a. Spartan (30), while the suspects were found with a pump-action gun, six live cartridges, a cutlass, and a Toyota Sienna minivan (registration number LSR 621 JW) allegedly used for surveillance and operational movement.
He hinted that the arrests mark a critical step in disrupting cult activities that have fuelled killings, extortion, and armed clashes in the Sapele–Oghara axis.
According to him, the recovered exhibits have been logged, while investigations are underway to track down additional members and dismantle the syndicate’s operational structure.

Terrorists have released a picture of the abducted wife and daughter of slain Kaduna Anglican priest with gun pointed at them.
LIB reported that Ven. Edwin Achi, his wife Sarah and their daughter were abducted from their residence in Chikun Local Government Area on October 28, 2025.
The terrorists threatened to k!ll the victims if their family failed to pay N200 million ransom.
The abductors killed the priest before the ultimatum lapsed and later released a picture of him and his wife on his Facebook page.
A family member, Avril, confirmed the latest development on X while addressing journalist Rufai Oseni.
“Please keep pushing the news that Ven. Edwin Achi’s wife Sarah Achi is still in captivity. Their captors recently uploaded a picture of her and daughter, with a gun pointed at them. Their demands are incoherent at this point,” he wrote.
Posting a heart wrenching photo of the victims on Wednesday, he wrote: “This is not a country.”
A heartwarming act of kindness by Senator Natasha Hadiza Akpoti has captured hearts on social media after she surprised her long-time domestic staff, Abdul Bambamba, with a home of his own.....TAP TO CONTINUE READING
Abdul, a skilled plaster-of-Paris (POP) artisan, had been contracted to work on a building, unaware that he was actually constructing his future home, the emotional revelation left him in tears of disbelief and gratitude.
In her words, she said:
“This particular house has a special story behind it, and the owner does not know it belongs to him. His name is Abdul Bambamba. He is actually an uncle to my children. I was married to his relative.
Even though the marriage failed, Abdul remained committed to me. He always cared for me and the children, even before I met my husband now. He has been a very special person to me.”
The gesture was more than just a gift; it was a recognition of years of loyalty and unwavering support. According to Senator Natasha, Abdul is more than an artisan, he is a family.
Even after her previous marriage ended, Abdul remained a steadfast presence, looking after her and her children through difficult times and significant milestones.
Overwhelmed by his humility, kindness, and steadfast loyalty, Senator Natasha decided to honor him in a way he would never expect: by giving him a home he had helped build with his own hands.
The touching moment has gone viral on social media, with many praising Senator Natasha’s generosity and describing Abdul’s loyalty as rare and commendable.
