On 19th April 2025, a Joint Security Team comprising of Police Operatives attached to Uli Police Station and Uli Vigilantes on patrol of Operation Udo Ga Chi – Zero Kidnapping engaged armed hoodlums on motorbikes in a gun duel, arrested two suspects and recovered one pump action gun and two motorbikes along Uli, Amorka, on Onitsha-Owerri Road.
The suspects, Chigozie Johnson and Umuerima Oguta all males between the age bracket of 30- 32 years, confessed to being among members of the criminal gang and were on an evil mission before they were arrested. Meanwhile, during the Police operatives search in a nearby bush, a lot of blood stains were observed – an indication that some of the gang members escaped with bullet wounds.
In the light of this development, the Command urged all proprietors of private and public hospitals to admit, but report any individual presented with bullet wounds or injuries of a suspicious nature to the nearest Police Station. The Command said this measure is critical to the ongoing effort to apprehend the fleeing suspects and prevent further escalation of criminal activities in the State.
According to the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Tochukwu Ikenga, the Command remains committed to maintaining security dominance through sustained patrols and targeted security operations in the State.
