Governor  Willie Obiano of Anambra state has handed cash reward of N6 million to Mr Mustapha Dandaura, the state  Commissioner of Police for operatives and informants who aided the arrest of two suspected killers.

Contained in a  statement issued on Tuesday by the Command’s Public Relations Officer, Haruna Mohammed, explained that the informants/operatives were those who gave information which led to the arrest of a suspect in alleged murder of Chief Frank Igboka, President General of Nimo community.

Mohammed stressed that the informant for Igboka would receive N5 million, while another informant that led to the arrest of Ikechukwu Udensi a.k.a Ikanda, suspected for the killing of one Mr Ndubuisi Nwokolo in Onitsha, would receive N1 million.

Igboka was shot dead at Nimo on the April 16, 2019 while Udensi, who was arrested about three months ago, was declared wanted over the murder of Nwokolo since last year.

While handing over the money, the Commissioner of Police, Alhaji Mustapha Dandaura informed that the governor’s gesture was a huge moral booster to security agents in crime fighting.

The police boss thanked Obiano for fulfilling his promise, just as he restated the Command’s readiness to sustain its onslaught against crimes and criminalities in the State.
