Excitement filled the commercial city of Onitsha, Anambra state
on Wednesday following the arrest of a notorious armed robbery
suspect, Chinemerem Elebeke, alias Meskana, who has been
terrorizing residents of the area.
No fewer than 20 victims of the suspect, stormed the Fegge
police station Onitsha on hearing that the dreaded armed robber
has been arrested.
The victims, most of who were dispossessed of their belongings
and cash at gun point, commended the Divisional Police Officer,
Gurba Rabiu for the giant stride,
describing the suspect as “one in a million” whose name sent
jittering to the nerves where mentioned.
Confirming the arrest, the DPO, Mr Rabiu said his officers had
been on the trail of the suspect who had been a great terror to
residents of areas and "I know that if we don’t get him my area
will remain unsafe."
He said the suspect confessed to had robbed about 30 innocent
victims at different locations including Ogbaru, Fegge, Odoakpu,
Inland town and environs, as well as petrol filling stations ,
shops, markets and some residential homes.
“As God will have it, on a tip-off that he was somewhere at
Odoakpu, we mobilized and on getting there, arrested him.
“His parents physically came in here begging for his release
with N1million but you know money is not for everything. This is
somebody who has caused much trauma to the society including a
pastor.
"Since his arrest, his victims have continued to flood the
station only to have a glimpse of him.” he stated.
Rabid said the suspect would be charged to court after thorough
investigation is concluded.
