Cultists, insurgents and other criminals attempting to destabilize Anambra state have been warned and put under pressure.
Anambra State Police Commissioner, CP Aderemi Adeoye, stated this, adding that their days are numbered, as there is no hiding place for them anymore, anywhere in the state.
CP Adeoye gave the warning while reacting to a massive feat recorded by the Police-led Joint Security Force in the State, which invaded and destroyed gunmen’s camps in different parts of the state.
The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) of the Anambra State Police Command, SP Ikenga Tochukwu, had, in a statement on Wednesday, announced that many forests in Ogbaru Area of the State were combed by the Joint Security Force in a massive raid that further destabilized the insurgents.
According to the PPRO in the statement, the combed locations were around Amiyi, Ochuche, and their environs.
He said the troops of the Nigerian Army and the Nigerian Navy lent considerable firepower to the operation that completely routed the criminals in their hideouts in the forest.
The Police spokesman, while noting that several camps and hideouts of the gunmen were found and destroyed during the operation that lasted for several hours, also revealed that no fewer than nine bombs and four walkie talkies were recovered from the destroyed camps.
