The team was led by the commissioner of police, Olatunji Disu, accompanied by the deputy commissioner of police operations Adepoju Olugbenga and some area commanders as well as heads of tactical units, DPOs and officers of the command.

LEADERSHIP Sunday gathered that the hoodlums were arrested  when the operatives combed the vast bush and its environs behind the Adokiye-Amiesimaka  Stadium at Igwuruta in Ikwerre local government area of the state where kidnappers terrorising Obiri-Ikwerre airport were suspected to be hibernating.

It was also gathered that more than 12 makeshift tents in camps abandoned by suspected kidnappers were destroyed.

Speaking with journalists, the deputy commissioner of police, Adepoju Olugbenga, said the raid and arrest of the suspects was a routine exercise.
