Police Arrest Six Foreigners Caught With Explosives

The Cross River State police command has apprehended six suspected Ambazonian rebels.

The Command disclosed on Saturday that it arrested the suspects after they invaded Akamkpa Local Government Area of the state.

 

Ambazonia is a political entity proclaimed by Anglophone separatists seeking independence from Cameroon.

Since 2017, Ambazonian rebels have engaged in armed conflict with the Cameroonian military in what is known as the Anglophone Crisis.

Speaking on the arrest, the command’s Spokesperson, Ewa Igri, said the suspects, whose age ranges between 18 and 36, were paraded with various weapons, improvised explosives devices, booths, charms and flags.

He revealed that the separatists were arrested following intelligence information, describing the feat as a breakthrough for the law enforcement agency.
