The Ebonyi State Police Command has arrested a suspect, Ovuta Chigozie, from Okoffia community in Ezza South Local Government Area, for being in possession of two human skulls and three locally made guns.
Spokesperson of the command, Joshua Ukandu, who disclosed this in Abakaliki on Wednesday, March 5, 2025 stated that Chigozie confessed the skulls were given to him for preparing a spiritual concoction.
“Authorities are actively pursuing the individual mentioned in connection with this case,” Ukandu added.
In a separate development, the police also recovered stolen tricycles and uncovered a syndicate altering the colors of stolen tricycles from neighboring states.
The operation led to the arrest of four suspects: Nweke Chukwudi, Nwankwo Obinna, John Abba, and Uche Abba.
Three stolen tricycles were recovered from the suspects, who admitted to receiving the vehicles from accomplices for colour modifications.
“All suspects will be charged to court upon the completion of investigations,” he said.
