Ugochukwu Orji, the immigration officer who arrested the Enugu state native doctor accused of killing people for rituals, has opened up on why he refused the N15 million bribe from the suspected ritualist.
Orji spoke in Anambra State after he was rewarded with N5 million by an industrialist, Ebuka Onunkwo, for his honesty.
Orji told Legit.ng: “When faced with the opportunity to arrest the Enugu serial ritualist, I chose to prioritise the safety of our people over the temptation of accepting a bribe. By refusing the bribe and opting for arrest and detention, I aimed to demonstrate that justice will prevail and that individuals who engage in heinous activities will be held accountable for their actions.”
