According to Lt Col Olabisi Ayeni, Acting Deputy Director of Army Public Relations, 82 Division, the suspects were involved in a February 2026 ambush at Okuku-Igbo, Delta State. 

That attack left one officer dead, another injured, and resulted in the theft of two AK-47 rifles.

The suspects reportedly fled Delta State due to intense security pressure, attempting to establish a new operational base in Ebonyi. 

Items recovered during the raid include five mobile phones and a motorcycle. 

The Army stated that the suspects are undergoing interrogation to help dismantle their wider network and recover the stolen weaponry.
