Oyeyemi confirmed the suspects; Nelson Enu, Patrick Emmanuel, Samuel Paul, Ekioya Joe, Monday Okoro, Endurance Eliobe and Stanley Ogejiagba were all arrested. The PPRO added that the arrest followed credible intelligence gathered by policemen at the Isara Divisional Headquarters over the activities of the suspects.

He said the suspects were arrested for cultivating a large expanse of land for the purpose of planting the Indian hemp at Lokuta village in Remo North Local Government Area of the state. He said “The intelligence further revealed that the suspects were threatening the lives of the villagers, who did not initially know what they wanted to use the cultivated land for, for daring to disturb them while the planting was going on.
