Security operatives at Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK), Awka, have apprehended two suspects, identified as Shehu Ibrahim and Sadiq Haruna, for allegedly stealing university property under the guise of scavenging.
Angel Network News (ANN) gathered that the suspects were arrested following an investigation into the theft of an air conditioning unit from the university’s printing press.
According to the UNIZIK Security Department, the duo had been moving around campus, claiming to be scavengers, while in reality, they were targeting and stealing valuable university equipment.
During a search, a dagger component was reportedly found in the possession of one of the suspects, raising further concerns about their intentions and level of threat.
The suspects were handed over to the appropriate law enforcement agency for prosecution in accordance with the law.
