The Enugu State Police Command has announced the arrest and arraignment of a masquerade for allegedly assaulting a woman in the Nsukka area of the state.

A statement by the Command’s spokesman, DSP Daniel Ndukwe, on Thursday, said the masquerade was intercepted and arrested on May 12, 2024, around 3.45 p.m. by operatives of the Nsukka Sector of the Command’s Anti-Cultism Tactical Squad.

According to Ndukwe, the masquerade, popularly known as Oriokpa, was sighted physically assaulting a female victim at Ugwuoye Junction, Nsukka, when the operatives arrested it.

Ndukwe stated that the masquerader, later identified as one Ugwuoke Ebube, aged 22, had been arraigned in court on Wednesday in Nsukka, even as he noted that the court later granted him bail.

Explaining, Ndukwe said that the investigation carried out by the command into the case suggested that the suspect was part of a group of masqueraders that similarly assaulted a female nurse riding a motorcycle, as captured in a viral video in April 2024.

“He was today, May 22, 2024, arraigned in the Nsukka Magistrate Court of Enugu State, Nigeria, but was granted bail by the court,” Ndukwe said.

The police spokesman, however, quoted the state Commissioner of Police, Kanayo Uzuegbu, to have condemned the act, while warning those intending to hide under the guise of culture-celebrating masquerades, to commit criminal acts of assaulting fellow citizens to desist forthwith.

He stressed that the command will henceforth not hesitate to bring anyone found wanting to book, just as in the case at hand.

This one na Ku Kux Klan na.

Sooner or later we'll begin to realise that not all our traditions are for our own good. Some are what the Devil used in keeping us under bondage.

Can they arrest spirit?
That spirit face looks like a criminal

Blood

See the kind of small boy

Me I no wan know weda na masquerade or not person teeth for fall.

Egungun don enter police station.

The worst police force has done well here.

The gods acted stupidly when they physically assaulted the health worker. So this arrest is a very welcome development. The gods must know that they are not above the law. They are not politicians.

Nice one! Using traditional activities to assault people is anti-humanity. The idiot should go cool his heels in the cooler for sometime in order to reset his damaged brain.

Chaiiii
Such a handsome boy wasting his time doing rubbish..

He feels like a god when he is a masquerade. But when he was arrested he is just an ordinary terrified man.
He is not a god afterall.

The spirits can be arrested physically. Fear not for you can still arrest them spiritually using the name of Jesus.

Very good the useless urchin was arrested.
Am sure he's one of the ardent supporters of Biafra or death.
Bunch of useless things.
Many of them even use masquerades to rape women over there in Nsukka and environs.

"Egungun be careful" now egungun don land for cell.
