PPRO LAGOS POLICE COMMAND



Police to clamp down on banger sellers

The Lagos State Police Command has said it would soon commence the arrest of sellers and users of bangers.

Command Public Relations Officers, Samuel Jinadu, a deputy superintendent of police, said the command had sent out warnings against the use of bangers and that the new drive would rein in sellers and suppliers.

He said it was important to track down offenders of that directive so as to check the possibility of robbers and terrorists cashing in on the opportunity to wreck havoc on residents.

Police arrest five armed robbery suspects

The Lagos State Police Command has arrested five armed robbery suspects allegedly terrorising residents of the state.

Command Public Relations Officer, Samuel Jinadu, said the suspects were arrested with a locally-made single barrelled shotgun in a stationary tricycle at Jejelaiye St., Ajangbadi, Lagos, during the Eld-El-Kabir celebration.

Jinadu gave the names of the suspects as David Silas, Niyi Bolaji, Odutola Temitope, Jude Jepher and Lawal Ramoni.

The PPRO said that the suspects had made useful statements to aid the police in their investigations.

He said that the case had been transferred to State CID, Panti, Yaba, for further investigations and for possible prosecution of the suspects.
