Suspected kidnap kingpin and armed robber, Honest Diigbara, alias Boboski, after his arrest on parade at Rivers Police Command headquarters.

Residents of some parts of Ogoniland jubilated on Saturday morning as news filtered in that officers of the Rivers State Police Command have arrested Honest Diigbara, aka Boboski, a notorious leader of a kidnap and armed robbery gang.

Boboski was alleged to be behind different atrocities in the areas for many years.

The gang leader had been on the police watchlist for years and had bounty of N30 million placed on his head by Governor Nyesom Wike.

He was arrested in the early hours of Saturday, in a sting by the police, with assistance of a local security outfit.

He was arrested along with his second in Command. He also sustained injuries during a  gun duel with law enforcement officers.

“He was arrested through credible information at  Korokoro Community in Tai  Local Government Area , where he was hibernating with his gang of killers.

“On sighting the Police they engaged us and in a returned fire, his driver was fatally wounded, while he was arrested alive,” Commissioner of Police, Joseph Mukan announced in a press statement he signed.
