By Sunny A. David, Awka
Personnel of the Anambra Police Command have arrested Ewulu Chikwo, 35, a suspected member of a gang responsible for the 2022 murder of Police Inspector Stella Maris during an attack on the Ukpor Divisional Police Headquarters.
Chikwo, apprehended during a raid on a criminal camp in Ihiala LGA on April 25th, 2025, confessed to his involvement and admitted to being a member of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
The arrest, made by operatives from Operation Udo Ga Achi and the Anambra State Police Command’s Rapid Response Squad/Anti-Kidnapping unit, followed intelligence suggesting the gang planned to enforce an illegal sit-at-home order.
Police Spokesperson SP Tochukwu Ikenga stated that increased patrols are underway, with a focus on apprehending remaining gang members.
