SHOCKER IN ANAMBRA: Troops Intercept Truck With Over 164,000 Cartridges — Notorious Gunrunner Arrested!

In a major breakthrough against arms smuggling, troops of Sector 5 of Operation UDO KA, working in collaboration with operatives of the 63 Brigade and the Department of State Services (DSS), have intercepted a truck carrying over 164,000 live cartridges in Anambra State.

The dramatic bust happened along the Asaba–Onitsha expressway on 29 May 2025, following credible intelligence reports. Security operatives swiftly moved in and apprehended the suspected gunrunner, Mr. Emeka Omenife, who was allegedly transporting the deadly cargo.

According to intelligence sources, Omenife was immediately handed over to the DSS for interrogation. During questioning, he reportedly confessed to being part of an international ammunition trafficking syndicate that moves weapons from Ghana to Nigeria.

Acting on the confession, troops launched a follow-up operation and arrested another suspect, Mr. Uchenna Obiora, at the Onitsha–Awka tollgate on 30 May 2025, as he awaited the delivery of the deadly consignment.

The operation successfully led to the interception of the truck carrying the massive cache of ammunition, which had been carefully concealed to avoid detection.

Authorities have vowed to continue cracking down on arms trafficking networks threatening the nation’s peace and security.

Hmmm!

Good one!
Rot in jail
Killers of innocent people

People from some places in Nigeria will do anything business.
If hawking poison was a business, some will hawk it. But come to think of it, aren't bullets metal poisons?

So, why is he wearing pant only?
