A team of police detectives has apprehended two suspected members of an armed robbery gang said to be terrorising residents of the Lekki area of Lagos State.
The suspects, Adebayo Ayomide and Isaac David, were arrested after they had allegedly robbed two residents of the area at gunpoint.
The team was said to have come in contact with two young women, Gbemi and Hannah, who were visibly disturbed as they alleged that they had just been robbed by the suspects. Elkana added that the women pointed in the direction in which the bandits had escaped on a motorcycle and the police gave them a hot chase.
“In their confessional statements, they owned up to belonging to a syndicate terrorising Lekki and its environs.”
