The operatives of the Enugu State Police Command have an armed robbery suspect, who dressed in a National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) uniform, along the Enugu-Onitsha Expressway.
The command’s spokesman, SP Daniel Ndukwe, disclosed this in a statement issued on Monday, October 20, 2025.
Ndukwe said police operatives attached to the Safer Highway Patrol intercepted and arrested the suspect on October 11.
Ndukwe noted that a gun-like object made from a body lotion container wrapped with clothes, a bank ATM card, a motorcycle suspected to have been stolen, and other exhibits were recovered from the suspect.
He disclosed that a preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect, on the same date at about 8 a.m., broke into the house of a victim at 9th Mile in Udi Local Government of Enugu State.
The police spokesman said: “The suspect used the gun-like object to threaten and rob the victim of the recovered items.
