Three suspects in a kidnapping gang believed responsible for the August 2 attack on St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Enugu State have been arrested by security forces. The arrests were part of a joint operation involving the Department of State Services, Nigerian Army, Police, Enugu State Forest Guard, and other agencies. One suspect was killed during a gun battle, while four AK-47 rifles and ammunition were recovered.
The arrested individuals were identified by two of the three kidnapped seminarians, Seminarian Lawrence Igbo and Emmanuel Onwudi. Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah visited the DSS headquarters to inspect the arrested suspects and vowed to continue deploying security measures to prevent criminal activities in the state.
