Senator Rochas Okorocha’s in-law, Uche Nwosu, was arrested, not abducted, according to the Imo State Police Command.
On Sunday, heavily armed men abducted the former governorship candidate from St. Peter’s Anglican Church in Eziama-Obaire, Nkwerre Local Government Area of Imo State.
However, in a statement released on Sunday, the command’s spokesman, Michael Abattam, stated that he is in their possession.
“This is to inform the general public that chief Uche Nwosu was not kidnapped but was arrested by the police and Imo state police command is aware of the arrest and presently he is in police custody,” the statement added.
It assured Imo residents that the police is committed to “ensuring the safety of lives and properties this Yuletide season.”
