Operatives of the Akwa Ibom State Police Command have arrested a dreaded criminal who allegedly killed over 15 people in the state, including a female corps member, Chinwendu Lovina Ezeh.



The suspect, Malachi Uwem, 24, is said to be serial killer and leader of a notorious armed robbery gang which specialises in robbing Point of Sales (POS) operators and filling stations.

Spokesperson of the command, SP Odiko Macdon, in a statement in Uyo on Thursday, said the suspects were traced to their hideouts at Ikang in Akpabuyo Local Government Area of Cross River State where they were arrested after a shootout with police operatives.

"The said Malachi and (the) gang have killed over 15 persons and have left some of his victims permanently maimed," the PPRO stated.

Macdon said some victims are still in the hospital, while others have shut down their businesses because of huge losses.

The police spokesperson said slain NYSC corps member died last week at a hospital in Enugu, Enugu State, after she was shot on February 20 and robbed of her iPhone, credit card, and N7,000 at Ikot Ambang.

"Only recently, on Monday, 25th April, he shot and killed two
young men on the grounds that the village couldn’t meet his
demand of N20 million, but were only able to raise N5 million,” he said.

"21/2/22, Malachi robbed and killed a lady teacher returning
from school in Okobo Ibiono who had stopped over at a POS shop to withdraw money, the statement read.

"5/3/22, Malachi shot and killed Mrs Idongesit Damson in her house in Okobo Ibiono. He also shot one Wisdom, whice also led to a protest and blockage of Uyo/Ikot Ekpene Expressway.

"Several POS shops and filling stations have been robbed by
the suspect and his gang in Okobo Ibiono, Itak axis and Uyo.

"Today, 28th April, 2022, operatives of Special Weapons And
Tactics Squad of Akwa Ibom State Command led by CSP
Julian Igbudu, traced the hoodlums to their hideouts in Ikang, Akpabuyo Local Government Area Of Cross River State, where Malachi Friday Uwem, his second in command, 31-year-old Wisdom Sunday Akpan, 20-year-old Ndifreke Sunday Ebong and 33-year-old Annansia Umoh resisted arrest and engaged the operatives in a gun duel.

"In the ensuing milieu, three of the gang were fatally injured while attempting to escape."

The PPRO said police recovered one cut-to-size pump action gun, one locally-made pistol, many cartridges, one gas head with a resemblance of a gun and assorted charms from the suspects.

Imagine wetin we men dey do, instead of us to educate the ignorant idvvts among us na gal wey dey fvvk dog Dem carry for head.
I dey pity the future because like this we men have almost completely destroyed the world with crime.

Killed 15 people at the age of 20 and 24? They should be executed with immediate effect. No mercy for the wicked.

What did the corp member and including the others did to them? What kinda nonsense?
They should be hung.

Criminals everywhere....why some people indulge in robbery and killings is still an enigma to me. I mean there are several legal things to do to keep your life going, why resorting to things that you will eventually be caught.
Very heartless set of humans

Unfortunately in Nigeria these gruesome criminals are police best friends.
Police here don't like law abiding citizens. Very bizarre.

Wicked souls,,,,,hope the Rot in jail, all of them

That's what the "cult power" they think they wield pushes them to do.

Have all the money in the world from robbing the bank, it never gives you happiness.

You will understand the consequences of living for blood money in the prison.

Believe NPF at your peril.

Where is the evidence they have that he killed all those people?

I'm not contending that the guy is a criminal. In fact, I believe he did some bad things, but, did he really kill all those people?

In Nigeria, just keep your head down, else if NPF catch you, they will beat you till you confess to killing Abraham Lincoln before you were born.

ASUU strike needs to end.

Futurisfemake don infect this one

Dear Lawd! See the lengthy list of atrocities!

It's bad enough to dispossess people of their hard earned money, but why kill them too??!

What's the joy in taking a human life, especially a defenseless one at that?!!

Nigerians are becoming more and more murderous of late... It's worrisome!

The rate crime is being committed by men is alarming. I really think something should be done about it.


Men are becoming a predator.... Women the prey

God help us women

Good
