Police arrested Nonso Augustine Akpeh, 37, and Kingsley Akpeh, 44, and recovered a pump-action gun and a locally made double-barreled gun. The suspects led officers to the women’s location in Anam Community. Kingsley Akpeh was shot in the leg and re-arrested while attempting to escape. One woman remains missing, and police are searching for her and a fleeing accomplice.
According to police, the arrested suspects led officers to the bush area in Anam Community where the women were held. During the operation, Kingsley attempted to flee but was shot in the leg and re-arrested. Meanwhile, efforts are ongoing to find the remaining missing woman and track down the fleeing accomplice.
Cameroonians have been buying goods from Nigeria, especially using XAF to exchange Naira, which has been increasingly high. With this advantage, Cameroonians have flooded the Nigerian market to buy goods and resell home.
This incident is a wake-up call for all Cameroonians dealing with agents to be careful and never reveal when they will make their trips.
