He was said to have been caught at a criminal hideout where he concealed his gun inside the Bible, which he came with all the way from Uli in Ihiala Local Government to Awkuzu in Oyi Local Government of the state.
The accused, who tried to deny police reports on him rather said he was a cultist of Black Axe Fraternity and was on a mission to harass another student who, according to him, was disturbing his girlfriend.
But according to police report, the operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) Awkuzu, stormed a criminal hideout at Awkuzu on February 20, 2010, and arrested the suspect who hails from Umuota village, Obosi with his gun, a locally made pistol and a cartridge.
Police also said that he confessed to be an armed robber and also gave them the names of other members of his gang who are now at large.
But while speaking with Daily Sun at the police headquarters, where he was paraded, the accused who tried to be smart said he went to the school with the gun only to protect himself because the guy who was harassing his girlfriend threatened to kill him:
“I have a problem with somebody and the person is a cultist too. The person is schooling at Anambra State University, Igbariam campus. He is threatening my girlfriend and that thing caused a problem between my girlfriend and I. I decided to come to Igbariam to see the person and know what is the problem with him.
“The person is threatening me that anywhere he sees me, he will kill me. So, I borrowed this thing (gun) from somebody. I have never touched this thing (gun) before. I didn’t pay anything for it. I borrowed it from just a local village boy.”
Asked how he knew the “local village boy” has a gun, he said, “he normally comes to our lodge. I told him that there is someone that is threatening my girlfriend. The boy said okay, what is my problem? I told him that the boy said that anytime he sees me, he will shoot me.
“My intention of collecting the gun is for my protection, so that wherever the boy sees me, he will not do anything to me.
“I didn’t hide it inside the Bible. I came only with it. When I got to Igbariam, I didn’t see the guy, so I decided to go and see my girlfriend so that we can settle the whole issues.
“When I got to my girlfriend’s house, my mind told me that this thing (gun) is terrible, is going to put me in trouble. I decided that I should collect this thing (bible jacket).
“This thing (Bible jacket) was empty, I didn’t see any Bible inside it. I just collected it to hide the gun. It was while I was in my girlfriend’s house that security men came and arrested me.”
Claiming that he did not know the real name and house of the boy that lent him the gun, the accused said “the boy who gave me the gun is from Uli and is called Obaino. I don’t know his house but all I know is that he normally comes to our lodge.”
