Fleeing Suspected Cultist Nabbed in Delta State

Delta State Police Command has arrested Clinton Awuerowswo, a 23-year-old suspected cultist who had been on the run since March following the recovery of firearms from his residence.

Awuerowswo, also known as Clinbaby, was apprehended on October 23 by operatives of the Oghara Division. The Police Public Relations Officer of the command, SP Bright Edafe, revealed this information in a statement issued on Friday.

"During preliminary investigation, the suspect reportedly admitted ownership of the weapons and membership of the Eiye confraternity," Edafe said.

The firearms recovered from Awuerowswo's residence include one Beretta pistol, two locally made cut-to-size guns, three live cartridges, a battle axe, and a jackknife.

The Commissioner of Police, Delta State Command, CP Samuel E. Erale, cautioned against cultism and unlawful possession of firearms. He reaffirmed the command's commitment to sustained operations against criminal groups while urging residents to provide credible information with assurances of confidentiality.
