A photograph of the leader of the Iceland Cult gang, Gift David Okpara Okpolowu (a.k.a. 2-Baba), who allegedly brutally murdered a Divisional Police Officer, (DPO), Bako Angbashim of Ahoada Division in Rivers State has emerged online.
Naija News reports that the Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, had on Saturday declared Gift, David Okpara Okpolowu, popularly known as 2-Baba, and all members of his criminal gang wanted for the murder of Angbashim.

Angbanshin was brutally murdered in the Odumude community, Ahoada East Local Government Area of the state, on Friday night, by suspected cultists.
The state Commissioner for Police in the state, Emeka Nwonyi, in a statement on Saturday, confirmed how Angbanshin was killed when he led a team of operatives to raid some criminal hideouts in the area.
Nwonyi narrated that while returning, gunmen suspected to be cultists ambushed them, and Angbanshin’s men retreated after running out of ammunition.
He explained that the late DPO sustained fatal injuries and was captured by the gunmen who took him away to murder him.
According to a Punch report on Friday, a viral video surfaced showing Angbanshin’s head, hand and private part separated with several deep machete cuts.
