The Rivers State Commissioner of Police, CP Nwonyi Polycarp Emeka, has condoled  with the family of  SP Bako Angbashim who was murdered by suspected cultists  on Friday in Ahoada East Local Government Area of Rivers State.

In a statement by the Police Public Relations Officer, Rivers state command, SP Grace Iringe-Koko, the commissioner described the news of the murder as distressing incident.

The CP in the statement said that full scale investigation on the matter is ongoing and that the culprits will be brought to book.

The statement reads;  ”In an unfortunate incident on the evening of September 8th, 2023, the DPO of Ahoda Division, SP Bako Angbashim, displayed exemplary courage during a mission to combat criminal activities in the Odumude Area of Ahoada East Local Government Area in Rivers State.

”SP Bako Angbashim, alongside his dedicated team, embarked on a raid of known criminal blackspots in the region. The operation led to a pursuit of criminals from their concealed hideouts. Tragically, as they were returning from this operation, they were ambushed by a significant number of criminals who opened fire on the brave officers.

”In the face of this adversity, SP Bako Angbashim valiantly held his ground, while his men, depleted of ammunition, made a tactical retreat. Regrettably, during this engagement, SP Bako Angbashim sustained fatal injuries, and one of his informants was also injured, currently receiving medical care for a gunshot wound.

”The criminals seized the body of SP Bako Angbashim, forcing the remaining officers to return to their base for reinforcement. Efforts were made to rescue and recover the DPO’s body, with assistance sought from the Army teams stationed at FOB Base Etraco. However, the operation proved challenging due to the extremely dark conditions within the dense bush.

”The Rivers State Commissioner of Police, CP Nwonyi Polycarp Emeka, PhD, has expressed deep determination to bring the perpetrators of this heinous act to justice. An extensive investigation is currently underway to uncover the circumstances surrounding this tragic event.

 

”Our thoughts and condolences go out to the family of SP Bako Angbashim and all those affected by this distressing incident”.
