The octogenarian was arrested following the arrest of her alleged
accomplice, Stella Omobude, 48, who was caught with 32 live cartridges
by the police.
Edo State Police Commissioner, Chris Ezike, who paraded the suspects
along with 71 other suspects, said based on credible information,
operatives/tactical units of the command raided Evbueren village,
along Benin/Auchi road, where Stella was arrested.
Her confessions led to the arrest of the octogenarian at Ekae village,
Benin City, with 68 live cartridges recovered from her.
Speaking with journalists at the command headquarters, the
octogenarian suspect confessed that she sold each cartridge to her
customers at the rate
of N250.
"I sell to them at N250, but I don't know what they do with it. That
is what I do for a living," she confessed
