Chris Anyanwu, spokesperson of the command, in a statement on Monday, said Okorie was arrested and not abducted as speculated.

He said Okorie, a former member of the house of representatives, was arrested over drug-related matters and several other offences.

“Sequel to initial viral rumours renting the air, cum a Press Release accredited to one Dr David Ogbonna of Linus Okorie CaringHeart Foundation, purporting that the former member of House of Representatives, was abducted on Sunday,” the statement reads.

“The State Police Command swung into action and later traced the said Okorie, who had evaded many Police arrests/invitations, to the head office of the Ebubeagu Security Outfit at the Old Government House.

“Police detectives were briefed on why he was arrested which includes; his activities and utterances that incited and provoked the violence that engulfed Onicha Community which led to suspected gunmen to unleash mayhem in the area in 2021.

“Hence, the case has now been taken over by the Police Command for a scrupulous investigation.

identity of OBIDIENTPIGS lifestyle. They are ALL CRIMINALS WORKING FOR OBI HIM TU LIE .

Burst his BALLS

The controller general of drugs is hear

Intriguingly, he was apprehended by ebubeagu security. Where are we going with all of this irrelevant news? He has been violating arrest since then, and they finally apprehended him with drugs. How sweet!

And the drug king is here and hasn't been arrested. contunu

Okay... Looks like a setup but if he's into drug... He is supposed to be tried alongside Tinubu, the chief importer

If he's guilty, then he should be prosecuted according to law.

Na Igbo but former tinubu boy.

Ok

Politics and drugs...

na you sabi ooo, leave OBI out of this ooo

Nigerians, do not allow these covert and overt campaigns against Obi prevent you from voting the chosen one. Nigeria does not have much time to get it right!

Just saying when did the police start arresting people for drug related crimes, I thought the NDELA was created for that?

Obi is da next
