Gov. Rochas Okorocha of Imo has
commended the Nigeria Police Force and the Department of State Services for
killing Henry Chibueze, alias Vampire, a serial kidnapper in Imo and environs.
A statement signed by the Chief
Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr Sam Onwuemeodo, quoted Okorocha as saying
that he had confidence in the security agencies.
Okorocha said even when Vampire’s
partners in crime took him away from the court few weeks ago, he knew it would
not be long before he would be arrested.
He also reiterated his
commitment to ensuring that the state was secure and permanently rid of crime.
“The declaration I made when I became governor in 2011 that no
criminal would survive in this state is still valid,“he said.
Chibueze, who was paraded by the DSS before the state governor in
2015, admitted to having carried out several kidnappings in the state and
beyond.
After Chibueze’s escape in January, Okorocha announced a N5million
bounty for any information that could lead to his arrest.
Chibueze, the Vampire, was the criminal spirited away by his gang
members on Jan. 27 in the premises of an Owerri High Court.
He was arrested in 2015 and had been in prison custody following
the kidnap of the wife of a government official.
Chibueze, who was brought to the court along with other arrested
suspects, escaped when gunmen opened fire immediately he disembarked from the
prison van.
The kidnapper was then spirited away by the gunmen, leaving five
prisons officials and some by-standers wounded by the gunfire.
