Fake policeman held in Akwa Ibom
Vicent Enuneku was detained by the Akwa Ibom State Police Command for pretending to be an assistant superintendent of police and for having what was thought to be Indian hemp in his hands.

This information was provided in a statement released on Tuesday in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, by the command's public relations officer, Odiko Macdon.

He said that on June 28, 2022, members of the command's Anti-Cultism unit detained the suspect, a resident of Delta State's Ndokwa Local Government Area.

According to information obtained, the suspect was an expert at extorting money from the trusting people and utilising a phoney ID card to go past checkpoints with ease while bringing Indian hemp into the state.

Maxdon said that luck ran out on him while trying to use the fake ID card to prevent the arrest of a wanted criminal.

The statement read in part, “The CP has warned impersonators of Police and other Agencies to desist forthwith or have the Police to contend with. The CP gave the warning after personnel of the Anti-cultism Squad of the Command arrested one Vincent Sampson Enuneku, 43 years old from Ndokwa Local Government Area of Delta State, for impersonation and being in possession of large substance, suspected to be Indian hemp.

“The suspect was arrested on the 28th of June, 2022, in Uyo while attempting to use his fake Assistant Superintendent of Police ID card to prevent the arrest of a wanted criminal

“Investigation revealed that the suspect uses the ID card to pass through checkpoints freely while transporting Indian hemp and other prohibited items to Akwa Ibom State.

“He is also good at using the ID card to extort and harass innocent members of the public, thereby bringing the image of the Force to disrepute. Exhibits recovered from the suspect include fake Police ID Card and a large quantity of Indian hemp.”

Meanwhile, the statement added that the Commissioner of police, Olatoye Durosinmi, had decorated 37 SPs and charged them to always “discharge their duties professionally in consonance with extant laws.”
