Police arrest two robbers, recover arms in Lagos
Yesterday in Lagos, two alleged robbers were arrested with weapons and ammo. The suspects were charged with terrorising Badagry locals.

The suspects, identified as Sodiq Muftau (also known as Mainama), 30, and Surakat Toheeb! (also known as Elewedu), 29, were apprehended in Badagry on Friday, September 23, 2022, according to SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO).

“The suspects were arrested when policemen on routine patrol noticed their suspicious movement within Ajara community. Other members of the gang took to their heels upon sighting the police. After a thorough search of the suspects, a locally made double-barrelled pistol, nine live cartridges, charms and weed suspected to be Indian hemp were found in their possession.

“Investigation revealed that the suspects are members of Eiye Confraternity in Badagry and environs. An effort is in place to unravel more details about their activities and the source of the firearm. Suspects would be arraigned at the conclusion of the investigation.

“The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Alabi, while commending the detectives for a job well done, has charged officers and men of the Command to redouble efforts towards sustaining the safety and security existing in the state.”
