Zenith Bank Robbery: IMSU Graduate Arrested By Police

 

 

The remaining member of the four-man robbery gang that attacked a customer at Zenith Bank in Owerri, killing two policemen, has been arrested by the Imo State Police Command.

 

Chinomso Gift Onwuegbuchulam aka Ogolo, was arrested at his hideout at Close 7 Mgbuakara, Eleparanwan in Rivers State.

 

The Commissioner of Police in Imo, Chris Ezike, said Onwuegbuchulam had a bachelor’s degree in public administration from the Imo State University.

 

He has confessed to the crime and further revealed that out of the N2.8m his gang stole from their target, he got a share of N400,000.

 

The suspect also confessed to being an armed robber since 2012 and has participated in several robbery operations in Lagos, Port Harcourt and Owerri between 2012 and 2017.

 

Recall that the four-man robbery gang attacked a customer at Zenith Bank, Owerri in February last year, killing two on-duty police officers.

 

The police had, however, arrested two out of the four gang members, days after the incident, recovering three AK47 riffles and 175 rounds of ammunition, while one member of the gang was killed during the robbery.
