Our Leader Shot Pregnant Woman In The Private Part – Gang Member Confess

A member of a deadly eight-man armed robbery gang,

Johnson Aikko , aka, Stigma, arrested by detectives

attached to the Special Intelligence Response Team (SIRT),

set up by the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Solomon

Arase, has narrated how their gang leader known as Denis

Avaughwa , aka Ava, shot a pregnant woman in her

private part during one of their raids in a house in Abuja,

the Federal Capital Territory.

Akiko added that apart from shooting the heavily pregnant

woman, Ava also shot the woman’s husband on his two

legs and that the other gang members fought with their

leader and questioned why he had to shoot the woman

even after they had robbed the family of their valuables.

Aikko also told the operatives that sometime in 2015, his

gang, while escaping after a robbery operation, stumbled

on a six Fulani herdsmen sleeping and opened fire on

them, killing them all.

According to the members of the gang, were supplied

weapons by a prison official and a policeman, after their

arrest led to the discovery of three AK47 rifles and four

revolvers.

Akiko recollected how the woman was killed in the most

horrific way by Ava in November, 2015, when the gang

raided the Supper Cell Estate, a highbrow area in Apo, in

the FCT.

Hear him:

“I don’t know what came over Ava that night. It was as if

he took drugs. We saw a pregnant woman in the first

apartment we entered. We demanded for money. But it

was clear she was consumed with fear.

Ava screamed at her. She brought N150, 000 in N500

denomination. She handed the money to me. Before I

knew what was happening, Ava opened fire on the

woman.

He shot into her private part. I was stunned. He went on

to shoot the woman’s husband. The woman’s husband lost

two of his legs.”

Akiko also noted that aside from the pregnant lady and

her husband, a middle-aged woman, Glory Uzoh, who

recently moved to Abuja, from Lagos State, was shot in

her abdomen and arm.

The bullet perforated her abdomen and burst out of her

back. Uzoh was said to have miraculously survived

because the bullet narrowly missed her intestines.

The police said that Ava is a notorious robber, who had

been arrested twice for robbery and remanded in Kuje

Prison in Abuja.

“Ava formed a new gang in 2014 after he regained his

freedom. The gang operated with three AK47 rifles and

four locally made revolver rifles. They’ve carried out

several high profile robberies around residential estates in

Abuja.

They used to cart away cash, exotic cars, jewelries, laptops

and mobile phones during operations. The gang murdered

six Fulani Herdsmen who they accosted in a bush while

escaping after a robbery in Lugbe, Abuja.

They sighted the herdsmen sleeping and opened fire on

them. They killed all of them at the spot. Ava ordered the

killing of the herdsmen in retaliation for their activities in

his state, which is Benue.”

The eight robbers, including their receiver, financier and

arms supplier were arrested, including Ibrahim Suleiman,

aka, Scorpion, Aikko, Pius Gabriel, aka Double Spirit, Rabo

Yakubu (arms supplier), Oladimeji Ikotun, (alleged

receiver and financier), Umaru Nda, Matthew Ofe ,

Nicodemus Shittu, Ogbona Chidubem , aka 102 and the
