The Cross River Police Command said it has
arrested a female armourer, Ms. Hope Usang,
25, who leases arms to suspected robbers in
Calabar. Usang and 21 other suspects were
arrested at different locations across the
state.
When policemen stormed Usang’s house, they
recovered three revolvers, four rounds of
ammunition, one pistol, one locally-made
pistol among others.
The state Commissioner of Police, Hafiz
Inuwa, who briefed Aprokos said that Usang
was arrested last month following a case of
robbery involving one Paschal Bisong of
Ekpeyong Effiok street in Calabar Municipality.
According to him, after Paschal made
complaint to the police about the robbery
attack, his men swung into action and
arrested one Emmanuel Edet-Etim and Idoreyin
Usa.
He further explained that after a thorough
investigation by the police, the suspects
confessed that they got the arms from Usang.
Meanwhile, Usang told Vanguard Aproko that
the guns found in her house belong to her
boyfriend, a student, but did not divulge his
name.
Her words: “The guns belong to my boyfriend,
a student. I never knew that he was keeping
some guns in my house.”
[color =blue]OUR UNRELIABLE APROKO reports a police
source told him that Usang is a big dreamer
and one of her dreams was to become a major
arms supplier in not just Nigeria but Africa so
she can start supplying governments and
rebels around the continent.[/color]
