The police in Edo State have caught two men who were said to have scared people by saying they would burn a house and hurt the people living there.
The police officer, Mr. Moses Yamu, shared this news on Friday in a place called Benin City.
Mr. Yamu explained that the men, who are in their 30s, were taken into custody so the police can learn more about what happened.
It all started on October 8 when a lady named Evelyn Akpan told the police that on September 30, someone sent her scary messages. The messages said they would set her house on fire and harm her family if she didn’t give them a big amount of money, N1,500,000.
The police, using smart skills, found and caught two men named Prince Anthony Uwa, who is 31, and William Ugiagdor, who is 38. Both of them admitted that they did those bad things, the officer said.
