Anambra’s elite Commissioner of Police Special Patrol Team turned the tables Tuesday, recovering a whopping ₦636,700 in alleged stolen cash, a pump-action rifle, a locally fabricated single-barrel shotgun and a wrecked Toyota Highlander (UWN 680 PE)—all ditched by armed robbery suspects who crashed and fled during a blistering 5pm hot pursuit in Abagana, Njikoka LGA.
PPRO SP Tochukwu Ikenga confirmed the intel-fueled sweep nabbed extra incriminating gear, underscoring Anambra’s transit-hub vulnerabilities where robbers exploit busy routes for quick hits—now ramping intelligence ops to hunt the ghosts, dismantle networks and prevent repeats amid rising festive crime spikes.
This haul cripples local thugs’ firepower, boosts public safety ahead of yuletide rushes and signals zero tolerance under CP operations—residents urged to flood hotlines with tips, proving community intel is the ultimate crime-killer in Nigeria’s security chess game.
