He added that NSCDC does not accept accidental discharge in an  issue like this. He explained that the suspect was clearing the road when his rifle was hit by another person and the bullet went off and hit Emenike.

He said: “It was on  January 26, about 5pm,  when we had the information that there was an ugly incident  at Umunachi in Isiala Mbano Local Government Area home of Onuoha,  that somebody had been shot by our man.

“I called Abuja and my commandant quickly asked for the immediate arrest  of  the guy.

“He was arrested and is in the police custody for proper investigation”.
