EKO HOT BLOG reports that Security operatives have apprehended a 70-year-old native doctor linked with the unknown gunmen that beheaded a lawmaker in Anambra State, Okechukwu Okoye.

It was gathered that the native doctor was exposed by one of the gunmen that were arrested last week.

Upon the information received, security operatives traced the native doctor to Unubi in the Nnewi South local government area of Anambra State.

The spokesman of the state police command, Tochukwu Ikenga failed to speak on the arrest of the native doctor, adding that it might jeopardise investigations.

Ikenga said: “We don’t want to disclose some of our strategies. Let them know that the police command is not folding its hands in unmasking these killers.”

“These things are intelligence-driven and there are already eyewitnesses. In due time, we will let Nigerians know as we will bring all the perpetrators to book.

“Please, help us to tell Nigerians that a lot is being done.”
