EKO HOT BLOG reports that Prince (Dr.) Ifalade Oyekan, the General Manager of the Lagos State Neighbourhood Safety Agency (LNSA), has praised officers from the agency’s Ikeja Command for apprehending three alleged “One-Chance” armed robbers who had been operating across the state.
Prince Oyekan, speaking about the arrest, said the three suspects are members of a crime syndicate who were apprehended by the Agency’s operatives in Opebi, Ikeja, after receiving a tip-off, before being handed over to the police.
According to him, “Preliminary investigations revealed that the suspects: Dele Olawale (M/52), Remi Ogunleye (M/45) and Kole Akintunjoye (M/40) reside in Ogun State but travel down to Lagos State daily to rob unsuspecting commercial vehicle passengers”.
“The gang, which usually operates in a Volkswagen Golf with registration number KRD 998 DE, acts like ordinary passengers to lure innocent victims into their vehicle before robbing them. They carry out their criminal activities mostly in Lagos Island, Lekki, Ikoyi and Ikeja”, he added.
Reiterating the commitment of the Lagos State Government to fight crimes and criminality across the State, Oyekan called on the general public to remain vigilant as criminals don’t often relent in their efforts to fleece persons of their hard-earned money.
