The Akwa Ibom State Police Command has arrested a 24-year-old man for allegedly threatening to k!ll his father.

Spokesperson of the command, DSP Timfon John, who disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday, May 20, 2025 said operatives swiftly responded to a distress call from a man (name withheld) of Ikot Imoh village, reporting that his son, Ubong Friday Benson, had barricaded himself and was threatening to k!ll him with a dagger.

“The complainant further stated that the suspect had previously threatened to shoot him with a locally made pistol, which he habitually concealed in a nearby bush,” the statement read.

“Upon receiving the report, a team was immediately mobilized to the scene, leading to the successful arrest of the suspect, Ubong Friday Benson.

“During the course of interrogation, the suspect confessed to possessing the firearm and subsequently led the police team to a bush where the alleged locally made pistol was recovered.”

Further search of the suspect’s possession led to the recovery of the following dangerous weapons, including one dagger, an iron filer, long iron chisel, iron hammer and a penknife.

“Preliminary reports indicate that the suspect had allegedly inflicted injuries on some community members prior to his arrest. However, at the time of this release, only the suspect’s father has come forward to provide a statement.”

“Investigations are currently ongoing, and the Akwa Ibom State Police Command is committed to ensuring the swift prosecution of the suspect.”
