Okoye said, “He claimed to have found it along a riverbank on the Okigwe-Umuahia Expressway, an area where the command has received cases of kidnappings.”
Meanwhile, he declared that the command had already declared the said uncle, Osunta Oko, and other possible accomplices in connection with the crime wanted. He added that a DNA analysis is underway to determine the identity of the skull’s owner.
He also promised that the Commissioner of Police, CP Aboki Danjuma, has reassured the public of the command’s unwavering commitment to safeguarding the safety and security of all residents, emphasising that justice will be served and that the suspects will face prosecution upon completion of the investigation.
