Raid on Justice Odili’s residence: Journalist, fake CSP, 12 other suspects paraded

A journalist with one of Nigeria’s leading newspaper, Stanley Nkwazeme, was among the 14 suspects paraded by the Nigeria Police on Thursday for the rinvasion of the residence of Supreme Court Justice Mary Odili.

The suspects consist of syndicates drawn from police, military, journalism and the legal profession.

Police spokesman, Frank Mba, who paraded the suspects, said seven of them, including two soldiers are at large.

He vowed that all suspects at large would be apprehended.

Mba noted that the leader of the illegal operation is a fake Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP).

He said the criminals are loose canons and document forgers who were on their own and not hired by any personnel of the ministry of justice.

The fake cop who claimed to be a consultant in the Office of the Attorney General of the Federation said he was not sent by the ministry.

“Investigation is still ongoing to determine who were their pay masters and the police promise not to sweep anything under the carpet to unravel all those behind the midnight raid on the Supreme Court Justice’s house.
