A warrant of arrest has already been issued against the suspect by the High Court of Abuja. Police alleged that he attacked a complainant with
a machete and knife, inflicting multiple injuries that required stitches across the victim’s head and body, leaving him lucky to escape death “by the whiskers.”Describing the fugitive, the Force said Nkemakolam is a 38-year-old man of medium height and build, with a copper complexion and a square-shaped face. He is said to dress in western-style clothes and speaks Igbo fluently.
