He was arrested by the Bayelsa State Police Command. Ekpebu was abducted and murd3red, and his body was dumped in a bush on July 24 2025. The suspect, identified as George Idumangi, from Ogbia Local Government Area of Bayelsa State, was arrested on Monday, September 22, in Lagos while attempting to procure an international passport at the Immigration Office. It was gathered that the state Commissioner of Police, CP Francis Idu, had transferred the case to Operation Puff Adder, led by CSP Chris Nwaogbo, for investigation. Operatives of Operation Puff Adder trailed the suspect to Lekki, Ikorodu, Festac, Ikeja, and Orile in Lagos State before finally arresting him on Monday. Officers reportedly missed him narrowly at some hideouts but recovered his bag containing a T-shirt with “IYC Tactical Team” inscribed on it, as well as two phones allegedly linked to the murd3r of the estate agent. The police team had earlier arrested 23-year-old Victory Benard Henry, said to be Idumangi’s girlfriend, in Yenagoa. Items recovered from her included one pump-action rifle, five live cartridges, two empty AK-47 magazines, 10 walkie-talkies, 10 chargers, and three AK-47 rifle slings. Victory allegedly lured the late Ekpebu under the pretense of discussing a land sale. She linked him to Idumangi, who then connected with a potential buyer. The buyer reportedly paid N9 million directly into Idumangi’s account. Preliminary police investigations revealed that Victory allegedly received N1 million for her role. Trouble began when the buyer demanded land documents from Ekpebu, who denied knowledge of the transaction. According to a police source, “The buyer contacted the agent for the papers. The agent told him to meet the landowner, as he was not aware of the transaction. He said instead of informing him, the buyer paid the suspect directly.” Ekpebu later confronted Idumangi, warning him not to lie that he had received the land documents. Subsequently, the suspect, alongside one Victor Shadrack (popularly known as Doggy) and another accomplice identified as Insurance, allegedly lured Ekpebu out of his house, abducted him, and k!lled him to cover up their false claim that the agent had absconded with the land documents. Confirming the incident, CP Idu said, “After painstaking intelligence and law enforcement measures, Mr George Idumangi, who murd3red Mr Richard Ekpebu at Bayelsa Palm, was arrested this morning in Lagos while trying to flee the country. This was achieved with real intelligence. I am grateful to the noble people of Bayelsa and the Prosperity Government.” Share this news: Discover more Online course on journalism Romance novel recommendations Sports news subscription News aggregation service Health and wellness products Tech accessories store Metro news service Celebrity gossip magazine Video content creation Recent News Toke Makinwa Gifts Her Baby Daughter Diamond Earrings Published on Tue 23rd Sep, 2025 I’m Not Sure I Want to Spend the Rest of My Life on Blood Pressure Medication – Uriel Oputa Says She’s Thinking Twice About Getting Married Published on Tue 23rd Sep, 2025 Wike’s Son, Jordan Called to Bar Published on Tue 23rd Sep, 2025 Police Arrest Three Kidnappers Who Collected N2m Ransom From Victim And Shot Him For Not Having Enough Money Published on Tue 23rd Sep, 2025 Ballon d’Or: Nigerian Goalkeeper Ranked 4th Best in The World Published on Tue 23rd Sep, 2025 PROMOTED CONTENT Xenoprost Prostatitis Will Disappear In 2 Nights!
