Zenith Bank Owerri runaway robber Chinonso Gift Onwuegbuchulam nabbed

www.odogwublog.com reports that twelve (12) months after partaking in a bloody armed robbery operation at Zenith Bank in Owerri, the Imo State capital, 29-year Chinonso Gift Onwuegbuchulam, alias Ogoli was nabbed at a hideout in Port Harcourt, Rivers State where he has been hiding.

Ogoli and three other gang members had participated in a robbery, at the Wethedral branch of Zenith Bank, in Owerri, on February 22nd, 2017, which left two Policemen dead, as well as one of the armed robbers.

Imo Police Commissioner, Mr Chris Ezike paraded Ogoli before newsmen at the weekend, after his arrest by the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) following intelligence and diligent investigation.

Imo Police Public Relations Officer, (PPRO), Andrew Enwerem told The Authority Daily that after the robbery operation, Ogoli relocated to Lagos, and later Port Harcourt where he stayed in hiding at Close 7 Mgbuakara Eleparawan, Port Harcourt, Rivers State until he was arrested.

Ogoli had remained in hiding because the footage of the incident had gone viral on the social media wherein he was identified as the man that collected the money from the victim through a closed circuit television (CCTV) provided by the bank.

Ogoli hails from Obazu Mbieri in Mbaitoli local government area of Imo State.

Speaking to newsmen, Ogoli said "out of the N2.8 million we stole, I got a share of N400,000.00. I have been in armed robbery business since 2012 and have participated in several robbery operations at Lagos,  Port Harcourt and Owerri between 2012 and 2017."

According to him, he regretted participating in the robbery operation because since then, it has robbed him of his peace and freedom to live, and reduced him to a life in hiding.
