The Enugu State Police Command says it has arrested the men responsible for killing Sgt. Helen Sunday, the orderly of the Enugu State Deputy Governor.
The Police Public Relations Officer for the command, Ebere Amarizu, stated the orderly was shot at close range around 10 pm on May 9 on her way back from work after she resisted the men who wanted to rob her.
Amarizu stated the suspect, Emmanuel Onyeabor and Kanu Oti, were arrested based on intelligence report a day after the incident at their hideouts at Lomalinda Independence layout and Amorji Nike Abakpa after a gunbattle that left them injured.
He said, “The suspects were apprehended by the Anti-Kidnapping Squad of the Enugu State Command of the Nigeria Police Force acting through a well-coordinated operation born out of intelligence information.
“At their various hideouts, we engaged them in a gunbattle and some of the gang members who escaped the gun battle were later nabbed through intelligence report. the men are currently regretting their actions saying their motive was to rob the victim and not to kill her.”
He stated the command also recovered the deceased’s phone amongst others from the hideouts.
