The Edo State Police Command has made a significant breakthrough in its fight against cultism and violent crimes. In a coordinated operation, operatives arrested four suspected cultists and recovered four English pump-action guns, nine live cartridges, and three expended cartridges. The suspects, identified as Solomon Oboigbe, Fidelis Omale, Julius Oseyomon, and Abraham Erumosele Momo, are alleged members of the Eiye Confraternity.
The recovery of firearms is a major blow to the cult group, and the police are determined to sustain their crackdown on cultism and other criminal activities in the state. The Commissioner of Police, Edo State Command, CP Monday Agbonika, has commended the operatives for their professionalism and prompt response. The police are urging members of the public to continue providing timely and credible information to help in their efforts to maintain peace and security in the state.
The Edo State Police Command's relentless pursuit of cultists is a welcome development in the fight against violent crimes in Nigeria. It's a stark reminder of the devastating impact of cultism on our communities, particularly in the Niger Delta region. The police's commitment to ensuring public safety and security is a testament to their dedication to protecting the lives of Nigerians.
