The Commissioner of Police Imo State Command, CP, Abutu Yaro, revealed this to journalists at the Command headquarters in Owerri, noting that the command was able to gather information on their activities before their arrest.
Twenty-nine suspected members of the Eastern Security Network and Indigenous People of Biafra reportedly planning to attack Imo State ahead of the Sit-at-home order on Monday were arrested by security operatives in the state on Sunday.
”I am glad to report that Imo has remained largely peaceful. We have security measures to ensure everything is secure.“However, a lot of mileage has been scored and Imo still remains a leading light. We are not relenting. We must always be ahead of them," he said. The suspect said he had repented and would work with the police to fish out other members.
