In a significant development, the Lagos State Police Command has apprehended four individuals suspected of vandalising and stealing armoured cables that belong to the Lagos State Government. Here are the details:
According to Police spokesperson SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the suspects—Oseni Yusuf, Richard Solomon, Emmanuel Ezeobi, and Isaac Shedrach—were taken into custody by a Police patrol team in the Ikeja area of the state. The incident occurred on Monday.
The suspects were caught in the act, along Oba Akran Road, as they tampered with armoured cables that had been installed by the state government for the ambitious Smart City Light Up Lagos Project. Fortunately, no casualties were reported during the arrest.
Despite this swift action, the investigation is still ongoing, and authorities are determined to get to the bottom of this case. The Lagos State Police Command remains vigilant in its efforts to safeguard public infrastructure and maintain security within the state.
