Upon arrest, she recalled alerting the police of the threats on her life but that an officer went behind to inform the kingpin.

“I once reported how he had been intimidating me to a policeman at Area E, FESTAC Town. But the policeman told Hefty that I wanted to bust his gang.

“Hefty and his boys came to my house, beat me up and left me with injuries on my face.

“Each time, they would beat me, my younger brother, and collect our valuables including phones”, Madukwe told Vanguard.
