22-year-old boy travelling from Lagos to Anambra caught with gun and POS machine in Edo State

During the stop and search, law enforcement officers allegedly discovered a Brownie Pistol with breach No. PZ1833, along with nine rounds of 6mm ammunition, and a POS machine in his possession.

In his initial statement to the police, Francis Okoye Obinna reportedly confessed that the gun was given to him by an individual named Emma in Lagos.

About the 22-year-old boy apprehended in Edo State, it's definitely a concerning situation. Carrying a rifle and a POS machine raises serious questions about his intentions and involvement in potentially illegal activities. It's good to see that the police are taking swift action and conducting thorough investigations to get to the bottom of this.
If you're still on the lookout for info, I have a suggestion based on my own recent experience. I recently scored a great deal on some 223 rem 556x45 ammo from https://bulkmunitions.com/rifle/223-rem-556x45-ammo/, so I'm pretty stocked up at the moment.

OP, do you even know what rifle means? These children that will just be entering NL anyhow!!!
