The infamous kidnap kingpin, Kelvin Ibruvwe, was caught Wednesday morning (September 25, 2013) -- a week after declaring a 60-day ultimatum on the Federal Government to provide infrastructure for his Urhobo kinsmen in Delta State, or face devastating destruction of oil and gas production facilities in the area.
The criminal was detected in a hotel, and arrested in the early morning hours.
It would be recalled that Kelvin Ibruvwe was responsible for the kidnap of and killing of Dr. Chudi Nwike a former Deputy Governor of Anambra State, while in captivity.
Among his other atrocities,
Ibruvwe allegedly set an ambush for a Nigeria Prisons Service vehicle
conveying suspects to Warri, and, in an attempt to free his
trial-awaiting gang members, shot three warders dead.
Two
members of the gang reportedly escaped arrest. It has been learnt
Kelvin and five others arrested with him were flown to Abuja by the DSS,
for further interrogation.
In
a parallel development, a shootout took place in the afternoon of
September 25, Wednesday, between Ibruvwe's supporters in his country
home, Kokori, Ethiope-East Local Government Area, Delta State, and
soldiers, who arrested the chief priest (Ose Igba) of Kokorki, alleged
to have provided charms for Kelvin and his gang.Click here after the cut...
