According to reports from SP Bright Edafe, the Delta Police Public Relations Officer, the command received a distress call from a resident of Isah Community, Ogwashi Uku, alerting them to hoodlums armed with guns causing chaos in the community forest.

Responding swiftly, the Commander of Safe Delta deployed police operatives to the area, where they engaged the armed criminals in a fierce exchange of gunfire. In the intense confrontation, three of the suspects sustained fatal injuries and were pronounced dead upon arrival at the Federal Medical Center, Asaba.

In a separate incident along the Asaba/Benin Expressway, operatives of the Rapid Response Squad encountered a group of six unknown gunmen during routine patrol. The armed suspects attempted to flee upon sighting the police, leading to a shootout.

During the exchange, two of the suspected robbers were apprehended with serious gunshot injuries. Despite immediate medical attention, they succumbed to their wounds and were confirmed deceased. Additionally, a cache of weapons, including locally made firearms and live ammunition, was recovered from the scene.

The Delta Police Command also apprehended four other suspects at the Isah Ogwashi Uku community, identified as Abua Prosper, Nduka Ashiedu, Abua Monday, and Ogor Okocha. These individuals, along with the recovered exhibits, are currently in police custody, pending further investigation.

SP Bright Edafe emphasized that preliminary investigations are ongoing, with concerted efforts underway to apprehend the remaining fleeing suspects involved in the criminal activities.

This decisive action by the Delta State Police Command underscores their unwavering commitment to ensuring the safety and security of residents, as they continue to combat criminal elements across the state.

Strategic Partnership Details

  • Formal Agreement: The two agencies signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on Friday, July 17, 2026, at the NDLEA headquarters.

  • Operational Integration: The partnership includes provisions for intelligence sharing, coordinated joint operations, officer capacity building, and the exchange of technical resources.

  • Joint Working Committee: A committee will be established to ensure the agreement translates into tangible operational results.

Rationale for Collaboration

  • Shared Criminal Networks: NDLEA Chairman, Brig. Gen. Mohamed Buba Marwa (Rtd), noted that criminal syndicates often engage in both narcotics trafficking and the piracy of creative works, using proceeds from one illicit activity to finance the other.

  • Economic and Social Impact: NCC Director-General, Dr. John Asein, emphasized that organized piracy is a major criminal enterprise that undermines Nigeria’s creative economy, destroys jobs, and weakens national security.

  • Intersecting Supply Chains: Both agencies identified that the same clandestine networks, transportation routes, and financial channels used for drug trafficking are frequently utilized to distribute pirated goods and launder criminal proceeds.

  • Inter-Agency Synergy: The leadership of both organizations highlighted the importance of moving away from isolated operations toward a collaborative model that leverages the specific expertise and intelligence capabilities of each agency.

The initiative aims to more effectively disrupt illegal supply chains, dismantle criminal structures, and protect both the creative sector and the general public from the influence of organized crime.
