Notorious wanted bandit, Abubakar Usman captured in Delta forest
Delta State security outfit, SafeCity Security Service, in collaboration with operatives of the state police command, has arrested a notorious wanted bandit, Abubakar Usman.
The arrest followed the kidnapping of one Mrs Blessing Chiedu, a native of Umunede Kingdom, who was abducted on 2nd July, 2026, along the Ani-Ifekide Farm Road, Ubulu-Uku. The kidnappers had demanded a ransom of N100 million from her family.
After her rescue, the team immediately launched a manhunt for the fleeing kidnappers until the early hours of Wednesday when their surveillance system located the gang to their hideout in the Ogwashi-Uku/Adonta Forest of the state.
A gun battle ensued, during which the combined team overpowered the criminals. One of the most wanted suspects, Abubakar Usman, was successfully captured, while other members of the gang escaped into the forest with their firearms.
