In a press release issued by the state police command spokesman (PPRO), DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, he said, “In compliance with the CP’S directive, the team moved to the scenes at about 8:30 pm, where four amongst the hoodlums were arrested, while others escaped”.
Dangerous weapons, comprising a cutlass, battle axes and criminal charms were recovered from the culprits, identified as Oriyomi Bankole (a.k.a Ortom); Odedina Sodiq, Shofola Ayodeji and Adelawa Ayo.
“Meanwhile, the commissioner of police, CP has assured the good people of Ogun state that the command will not relent in its efforts to rid the state of criminal elements masquerading as cultists.
