The Delta State Police Command has arrested Michael Ezenwai, a suspected serial killer and former prison escapee, in connection with multiple violent crimes, including a 2020 rape and murder case involving a university student.
Ezenwai was apprehended on October 24, 2025, after officers from the Agbor Division responded to a complaint about an attempt to sell a suspected stolen phone. Further investigation revealed that the phone belonged to a woman later found dead in her apartment. During interrogation, the suspect reportedly confessed to killing her during a robbery at her residence on October 23, 2025.
Police investigations have since established that Ezenwai is a repeat offender and one of the inmates who escaped from Oko Correctional Centre during the 2020 EndSARS-related jailbreak. He also admitted involvement in the attack that led to the death of the university student in 2020.
Ezenwai is currently in police custody as detectives continue to investigate his activities and possible links to other unresolved crimes in the state.
