The Joint Task Force South-East, Operation Udoka, has placed Ifeanyi Eze Okorienta, popularly known as “Gentle The Yahoo,” on its wanted list and announced a N30 million reward for credible information that could lead to his arrest.
In a wanted notice issued by the task force, Okorienta was identified as a perceived threat to peace in the South-East, while residents were encouraged to assist security agencies by providing useful information about his whereabouts.
According to the notice, a “reward of N30,000,000” would be given to anyone whose credible information directly contributes to his capture.
The military also appealed to residents to support ongoing efforts to tackle violence and criminal activities across the region, using the message: “Give Peace a Chance.”
Anyone with relevant information was asked to reach the security authorities through 193 or 0806 795 9570. The task force assured informants that they could provide information anonymously.
A photograph of Okorienta was included in the wanted notice, alongside the message: “No Violence, No Criminality in the South East.”
The declaration comes as security agencies intensify operations across the South-East against individuals suspected of involvement in violent and other criminal activities.
The task force warned members of the public against attempting to confront Okorienta if they encounter him and instead urged them to immediately notify security authorities through the designated contact channels.
