Nigerian Army confirms killing of suspected notorious kidnapper – Don Waney
The
authorities of 6 Division Nigerian Army Port Harcourt wish to inform
the peace loving people of Omoku in ONELGA in particular, Rivers State
and indeed the entire good people of Niger Delta in general that the
notorious cult leader, kidnap kingpin and mass murderer Don Waney is
dead.
This was made known by the deputy director Army Public Relations, Colonel AMINU ILIYASU on Sunday.
Recall
that in the early hours of Monday 20th November 2017, troops of 6
Division Nigerian Army acting on credible information from some
patriotic members of the public raided the evil Don Waney enclave in
Omoku, ONELGA Rivers State where shocking discoveries of assorted
weapons, dynamites, bags of suspected cannabis, full military camouflage
uniforms, military boots, military communication radios, 10 human
skulls and human bones were discovered. Additionally, in continuation of
the operation on Tuesday 21st November 2017, the troops also exhumed
decomposing bodies of some of his victims in his shrine in the glaring
eyes of the media who were invited to witness first hand.
Perhaps
not satisfied with the numerous lives of innocent citizens he took, Don
Waney masterminded the despicable New Year day mayhem in Omoku in which
he led his notorious gang of criminals to murder 23 peace loving
citizens of Omoku when they were returning from Cross Over Service at
about 1:30am on Monday 1st January 2018.
Intense surveillance
activities on him and his gang by the Department of State Services (DSS)
Rivers State Command revealed that after committing these atrocities he
relocated to a neighbourhood within Enugu Town in Enugu State where he
rented an apartment and started living among unsuspecting neighbours
within the community.
From the relative safety of his
newly-rented apartment, Don Waney was already perfecting plans to
wrought another mayhem in Omoku in which he was to attack churches,
schools, Army and Police locations and the RESIDENCES of the generality
of the already traumatized people of Omoku. However, following his
successful geo-location to his new Enugu neighbourhood hideout by the
DSS Rivers State Command, a combined team of troops of 82 Division
Nigerian Army Enugu and personnel of DSS Rivers State Command raided the
hideout to arrest him and his other accomplices.
Incidentally on
sensing that the combine team were closing in on his residence, Don
Waney, his Second- in- Command (Ikechukwu Adiele) and another gang
member (Lucky Ode) attempted to escape through the back exit of the
apartment and were shot down by the eagle eyed troops in the process.
One of them died on the spot while the other 2 who sustained gun shot
wounds eventually died while being evacuated for medical attention.
The
remains of Don Waney and his cohorts were brought back to Port Harcourt
Rivers State by the combine team and handed over to the Rivers State
Police Command for further action.
To this end, the authorities
of 6 Division Nigerian Army Port Harcourt wishes to use this opportunity
to extend their condolences to the families of all the victims of the
evil Don Waney and his gang. We also wish to solicit your further
cooperation in volunteering useful information to track down and arrest
the remaining gang members so as to bring them to justice for a
peaceful, prosperous and secured Omoku community, ONELGA, Rivers State
and the entire Niger Delta region.
You are kindly requested to disseminate this information to the general public. Thank you for your usual cooperation.
