The Imo State Police Command has arrested a 50-year-old suspected member of the Eastern Security Network (ESN), Simeon Onigbo, for allegedly manufacturing bombs for the group.
The Police spokesperson, Mr Mike Abattam, who disclosed this in a statement on Friday said that the suspect had since confessed to the crime and promised to reveal the hideouts of the terror group.
Onigbo allegedly produced locally-made bombs used in attacking police divisions and other government facilities in Imo State.
The command said it received credible intelligence on April 20 about the hideout where some alleged ESN members were manufacturing Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) used in attacking police stations and government facilities in the state.
