Three lecturers of Ambrose Ali University, Ekpoma have been arrested by men of the Edo State Police Command in connection with alleged cult-related activities.

Speaking on the arrest, the state Police Commissioner, Haliru Gwanda while speaking to journalists in Benin revealed that police operatives recovered firearms from the arrested lecturers.

The police commissioner, Gwandu further added that one of the arrested lecturers, a professor, was in possession of a double-barrel gun, single-barrel gun and one pump action gun.

He said: “The professor was arrested. He was granted bail. The case is under investigation.”

The arrest comes days after the state police force denied reports that its operatives brutalized the Dean of the Faculty of Law of the university, Prof. Sunday Edeko.

He added on the arrest: “It was a distress call from the community; the university community made a call that cult groups were killing and they killed so many.

“And at the time when they (policemen) went to inspect a site, they discovered more than 14 beheaded students at that particular time.”

Vowing that the state police will bring the cultists and their leaders in the area to justice, Gwandu said: “We have a lot of issues with that particular university. There are some senior lecturers that were apprehended with firearms.

“So, we are going to arrest those who are mentoring and those who are real cultists and charge them to court. There is no going back.”

Say no to cultism. That university is something else.

Is that what they apply for and to teach the up coming tomorrow's leaders, cultism. later someone would invade the the thread with fake police brutality pictures..

Nigeria Police and lies. Fourteen (14) heads on the ground? Where are there pictures? Police make una fear God ooo.

I hope the professor they arrested is not that law professor, because since the story of his brutalisation by the police came out, this commissioner Gwendu guy has denied the story, insulted him and has been trying to turn the case against him.

THATS MY PROBLEM WITH THE POLICE .. SO QUCIK TO DECLARE SOMEONE GUILTY IN THE NAME OF SCORING CHEAP POINTS .. ONE WOULD EXPECT THAT IN A VOLITILE TOWN AS BENIN AND IN A CULTIST INFESTED UNIVERSITY LIKE EKPOMA .. ITS ONLY NORMAL FOR ANY REASONABLE LECTURER OR PERSON LIVING IN THAT AXIS TO OWN A GUN FOR PROTECTION.. AM NOT ABSOLVING THE MAN OF BLAME .. BUT WHAT IF HE IS NOT A CULTIST AS ALLEGED AND HAS THE GUN JUST TO PROTECT HIMSELF AND HIS FAMILY FROM CULTISTS .. WHAT IF HIS ONLY CRIME IS SEEKING TO PROTECT HIMSELF FROM THOSE THUGS IN EKPOMA .. AFTERALL THE POLICE WONT PROTECT HIM.. WE KNOW SO MANY LECTURES THAT HAVE GONE ..
