Parading the suspects before newsmen in his office at Iyiowa Oduekpe, the Commanding Officer frowned over the negativity behaviours of our youths, cautioning every youth in the state and the nation at large to rethink and make proper use of their time.
Charging all criminally minded people in the State to make U-turn and be engaged in meaningful way of life and shun anything capable of ridiculing the image of their family and the nation by extension he made it known that the Navy is going to work in synergy with other security agencies in the state in giving the criminals a hot chase.
Confessing to the crime, Chigbo Daniel Obiasomba said he left his father’s shop at No. 4 Iweka Road Onitsha where they are doing their daily business to Iyiowa to steal the motorcycle with registration number QB 246 FGG so as to pay someone he is owing five thousand naira. “I came to steal the said motorcycle in order to pay one Ebuka whom I owe five hundred naira and unlucky to me, I fell into the trap of the Navy men” He confessed.

They however pleaded for leniency, promising that they will go and sin no more if they should be allowed to go but the Commanding Officer even after the plea of the suspected criminals said he was going to hand them over to the police for proper investigation and prosecution.
