AKWA IBOM STATE POLICE COMMAND LAUNCHES AGGRESSIVE RESPONSE AS SUSPECTED SEA PIRATES ATTACK MARINE POLICE PATROL

PRESS RELEASE

The Akwa Ibom State Police Command wishes to inform the public about a daring attack on its Marine Police Patrol Team by suspected armed sea pirates along the Oron-Calabar waterways on 11th January 2025, at about 1:00 PM.

The patrol team, during a routine operation, came under heavy attack from the criminals, who were armed and dressed in military camouflage. The assailants, numbering about 24 and operating in three speedboats, attempted to overpower our gallant officers in a gun duel. Despite their numerical advantage, our officers put up a brave fight but sustained losses.

Regrettably, two officers, Inspector Sunday Usuyak and Inspector Edet Enenyi, sustained gunshot injuries and are receiving top-notch medical attention. One officer, Inspector Udi Emenyi, is currently unaccounted for.

The Akwa Ibom Police Command has swung into immediate action, deploying a specialized search and rescue team to track and recover the missing officer. The Nigerian Navy and other Security services have been duly informed and is collaborating with the Police for the operations.

Let it be unequivocally stated that the Akwa Ibom Police Command will stop at nothing to ensure the perpetrators of this heinous act are apprehended and brought to justice. Our waterways will not be a safe haven for criminals.

The Commissioner of Police, Akwa Ibom State Police Command, CP Baba Mohammed Azare fsi, visited the scene and assured residents of intensified patrols and heightened security in the affected areas. The Command remains resolute in its mission to protect lives and property across the state.

We call on members of the public to provide credible information that could aid ongoing operations. The Akwa Ibom Police Command will keep the public updated as further developments unfold.
