The Ogun state commissioner for Police, Ahmed
Iliyasu has promised that residents of the state would henceforth sleep with
two eyes closed as the state command is on a clampdown on criminals as the
yuletide season is fast approaching.
The commissioner disclosed this in a press
conference at the state police headquarters, Eleweran, Abeokuta on Monday
November 13.
The commissioner thereafter paraded no fewer than 14
suspected criminals, including three ritualists, two kidnappers, four fake
soldiers, among others.
The three suspected ritualists were said to have
butchered a 17-year-old girl hawker and removed vital organs of her body.
The state command also recovered ammunitions such as
locally made pistols, live cartridges, knives, pump action guns and laptops
which were used by hoodlums to perpetuate crime activities in the state.
Also recovered is a paragon bus with Reg. No LAGOS
AAA 235XV which was hitherto used by Armed robbers on the Lagos/Ibadan express
way to rob unsuspecting passengers of their belongings.
The suspects who confessed to series of robbery
cases along that axis are Alaba Kareem, John Ogbeni and Kingsley Ognonna.
Meanwhile, the commissioner of police has assured
that “no group of criminals would be allowed to hold any jugular part of the
state, especially in these ember months as the state command is committed to
rid the state of crime and criminality.”
“The command has launched massive manhaunt for all
would be criminals across the state and this operation is yielding the desired
results.” Iliyasu said further.
