Military Declares ‘Gentle the Yahoo’ Wanted, Offers ₦30m Reward as Questions Trail Alleged Prior Arrest

The Joint Task Force South-East, Operation Udoka, has declared Ifeanyi Eze Okorienta, known as “Gentle the Yahoo,” wanted and offered a ₦30 million reward for credible information leading to his arrest. The task force described him as a threat to peace in the South-East and urged residents not to confront him if sighted. Instead, the public was asked to share information anonymously with security authorities. The notice is part of intensified operations against violent crime in the region. However, the development has raised questions because the post claims the military had arrested Okorienta months earlier. The military should clarify the circumstances surrounding his alleged previous arrest and how he may have left custody before being declared wanted again.
