The Defence Headquarters is yet to free the traditional ruler of Ewu-Urhobo Kingdom in Delta State, His Royal Majesty, Clement Oghenerukevwe Ikolo, Urhukpe 1, who was detained by the military over the killing of soldiers around Okuama community in Ughelli South Local Government Area of the state.
The monarch was reported to have been released on Monday morning after spending over two weeks in military detention where he was interrogated on his alleged involvement in the killing of the military personnel.
The wife of the monarch is not aware that they have released him. So, it cannot be true the monarch has been released,” one of the sources said.
Recall that the Delta monarch turned himself in after the Defence Headquarters declared him and seven others wanted over their alleged involvement in the gruesome killing of the military personnel of the 181 Amphibious Battalion in Bomadi by unknown gunmen.
