Although Okorocha’s aide resisted the temptation of giving graphic details of the security operation, he however said that “the suspect was shot, wounded and demobilized before being arrested”.

His words: “Matthew Ofurum leads the Imo, Rivers and Abia gangs. He recruits, trains and supplies ammunitions to gangs, using his official cover”.
