“The sad incident occurred in the evening of yesterday, 7/1/2025, when the nuns were returning from a Vocational service meeting in Ogboji,” Ikenga said.

He stated that the Command is already working with some clues for the possible arrest of the suspects and rescue of the victims.

The statement added that the Command is making an effort to rescue the member representing Onitsha North 1 constituency in the state House of Assembly, Hon. Justice Azuka.

Azuka was kidnapped on Christmas Eve while returning home for the Christmas celebrations somewhere at Ugwunakpamkpa, Inland Town, Onitsha by a gang of hoodlums.

The Command said that its operatives have already recovered the lawmaker’s vehicle which he was driving in when he was kidnapped.
