Operatives of the Delta State Police Command have arrested four suspected armed robbers in Asaba, the state capital.

The Delta State Police Command Public Relations Officer, SP Bright Edafe, confirmed the arrest of the suspects through a statement on Sunday in Asaba.
The statement read, “On 1st October 2025, the DPO B Division Asaba, CSP Edewor Akponegware, led his surveillance team in a swift response to a distress report about a robbery incident around the BONSAAC axis of Asaba, where a female victim was robbed at gunpoint by two male suspects.
“Working with local vigilantes, the team arrested one suspect, Amara Nwako 21, while his accomplice fled into an uncompleted building. A locally made pistol was recovered during a search. Preliminary findings revealed a possible cult affiliation linking the suspect to a certain Arobaga secret cult. The suspect remains in custody while a manhunt is underway for the fleeing accomplice.
“On October 3, 2025, operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS), led by the Commander, CSP Nosa Alex, acting on credible intelligence, conducted a targeted raid on a suspected criminal hideout around the Basket Market area of Asaba.
“During the operation, three suspects, Rabbi Godwin, 25, Lucky Nanakumo 20, and David Igwe 19, were arrested. One fabricated Beretta pistol was recovered. The suspects remain in RRS custody as investigators intensify efforts to arrest additional gang members and recover more weapons.”
