The arrest of Isaac Bankole, who resides behind Yah Lateef Area, Onibuku and Agboola Ahmed, a resident of Orile-Gboko, Lusada Area of Ado-Odo/Ota Local Government was made known through a Press Release by the Director of Information and Public Relations So-Safe Corps, Moruf Yusuf.
Yusuf said the two faceless robbery suspects were arrested by the patrol team of the So-Safe on Saturday while strategizing to rob Sokenu Community Development Association in Atan, Ado-odo/Ota Local Government Area.
He explained that in preparation for the planned deadly robbery attack, the culprits robbed an Okada rider of his Bajaj motorbike and instructed him at gun point that he would be with them throughout their operation for easy movement from one place to the other.
“Upon their arrest, the robbery syndicate, without any form of torture, confessed to the crime and added that they being Eye fraternity members gave them the effrontery to strike anytime without the fear of any law enforcement agencies.
“Items recovered from the suspects are: a Bajaj motorbike marked AYE 009 VW, one cut-to-size locally made pistol, two life cartridges, one ATM Card, one small Itel phone, one Tecno Spark 7 and various types of charms.”
The Director stated that the two suspects, their victim and the exhibits found on them have been transfered to the Nigeria Police, Atan Divisional Police Headquarter for further investigation and likely prosecution.
