Operatives of Directorate of State Security (DSS) have arrested a popular herbalist, Chief Chukwujekwu Onuorah, over his alleged involvement in the beheading of Anambra State lawmaker, Hon. Okechukwu Okoye on May 15. Chief Onuora, alias “Egbe-Ejiejeogu” is rumoured to be a younger brother to popular musician, Queen Theresa Onuora of Egedege Cultural Dance of Unubi.
Intersociety which has been following the development behind the scene through its undercover agents disclosed in its statement the arrest of the criminal gang whose members went on killing spree two days later, targeting defenseless civilians and their properties including the slain northern mother and her children. In the case of Chief Onuora, he was technologically trailed after he was found to have used the beheaded lawmaker’s sim-card to make calls, days after the killing.
It was at this juncture that one of the ‘soft targets’ was arrested in Igboukwu leading to third party identification and location of the arrested kingpin. Between early hours of 28th (last Friday) and 29th (last Saturday) May 2022, the house of the arrested kingpin was raided. He made a magical escape after several gunshots were fired at him by jumping into a ditch. After recovering several incriminating items including guns and bullets and his portrait, the operatives trapped him by leaving behind one of his cell phones. Between late night of 30th May and early hours of 31st May 2022, the cell phone was tracked to a private hospital in Awka forcing the operatives of the DSS to storm the clinic where he was arrested alive in bandage while trying to board a tricycle (KEKE).
