The Cross River State Police Command has arrested a
Senior Secondary School, SS 2 student, Christian
Donatus, aka Inyang, believed to be the leader of a robbery gang.
Donatus, a student of Eastern Secondary School, Ediba,
Calabar, the state capital, had allegedly led his
syndicate to raid a shop, Value Mart, owned by the
former First Lady of the state, Obioma Imoke, two
weeks ago.

The suspect was paraded alongside one of his accomplices, Ubong Bassey Essien, on Wednesday
before newsmen at the Command's headquarters.
Parading the 19-year-old man, the Police Public
Relations Officer, PPRO, Ms. Irene Ugbo, said the
suspect who hails from Akokwa, Imo State, had been
terrorizing various parts of the city, raiding homes,
shops and commuters and dispossessing them of their
valuables.
She said, "The gang shot a medical doctor at Akim Qua three weeks ago and also carted away safes at a
shop along Marian Road, containing large sums of
money.
"The suspect and one of his members were arrested on
July 16 by operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery
Squad, SARS.
"Efforts have been intensified to track down four other
members of the gang who are on the run and we hope
that very soon they will be arrested and brought to
book.
"These ones in our custody will soon appear in court,"
the PPRO added.
