During the operation, a 30-year-old suspect named Ademuyiwa Sodiq Akanni, also known as “Mate,” was apprehended at the mentioned location. Upon conducting a search on him, a locally made pistol along with a cartridge was found on him and was recovered as exhibit. Although some of the other suspected cultists managed to escape, the unit is actively working to track them down and ensure they face legal consequences.
