“Bobrisky Has Been Captured” – Governor Wike Says As He Promise To Pay N30m Bounty

Governor Nyesom Wike has announced the capture of a notorious cultist, Bobrisky of Gokana, by the Nigerian Army.

Bobrisky’s capture comes less than twenty-four hours after Governor Wike placed a thirty million naira bounty on the notorious cultist from Gokana Local Government Area.

Speaking during a security meeting with leaders of Rumuolumeni Community at the Government House Port Harcourt on Friday, Governor Wike thanked the Nigerian Army for capturing the suspected cultist.

“The Army has captured Bobrisky of Gokana. I will pay the bounty that I promised to the Nigerian Army.

“Anyone who generates insecurity in Rivers State, I am ready to pay any amount to ensure the arrest of that person”.

Governor Wike called on community leaders to supply information to the State Security council on criminals in their communities for the security agencies to act frontally to reduce crime.

He described Rumuolumeni as one of the flashpoints in the state, where criminals use the waterway as a getaway point. He urged community leaders to cooperate with the State Government to check the activities of cult groups and insecurity in the area.
