CHUKA UBAH
Facts have emerged on how a serving Senior Police officer, Assistant Superintendent of Police, ASP Danladi Edibo, attached to the Anti-Cult Unit in Enugwu-Ukwu, Njikoka Local Government Area of Anambra State, landed in adultery mess over affairs with another man’s wife.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the Commissioner of Police, Anambra State Command, has ordered the investigation over the conduct of the officer, Edibo, who was said to have handcuffed and detained a 22-year old, Chukwunonso Ikenna Ogbukagu, for disapproving his relationship with his mother, Mrs.Ogbukagu.
This was disclosed by the Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Haruna Mohammed, who confirmed that the Police have commenced investigation over the petition.
Chukwunonso, who revealed after he escaped from the unlawful detention, said he visited Nimo, a town in Njikoka LGA, to see his mother, who recently left his dad to rent a separate house, but noticed that the mother had a male friend, who always visited her in the apartment.
“When I demanded from my mother who the man was, I found out it was the same Police officer, ASP Danladi, who had a problem with my father, which also caused my parents to separate.”
“The man, knowing that I had noticed who he was, now called some Policemen who came with guns, handcuffed and detained me in a toilet in the apartment. I stayed there for four days without food or water. At a point, I realised that I may die if I continue to be here, so I summoned courage and escaped” Chukwunonso said.
He begged the State Police Command to come to his aid as his life was in danger; as the Edibo may come after him.
Meanwhile, the father of the victim, Chief Ikenna Ogbukagu, has petitioned the Anambra State Police Commissioner, CP Monday Bala Kuryas, and called for the restraint of ASP Edibo from further harassing him and members of his family.
In an interview, he further stated that, “ASP Danladi Edibo has been harassing me and members of my family. He collected my wife from me, and I said I have no problem with that, that he can keep her. He has taken her and rented a house for her in Nimo but I did not protest, yet he has been threatening me”.
“Last year, he came to my house at about 1am with Police officers, destroyed my doors and arrested me, saying that I sponsor cultists. There is nothing he has not done to me. I am very afraid for my life now, that is why I petitioned the Police Commissioner to come to my aid” Chief Ikenna Ogbukagu said.
