Nabbed Bandits Claim They Don’t ROB On Fridays And During Ramadan [PICTURED]

These 8 man gang dare devil robbers who were paraded at the state headquarters of the Police command at Eleiyele, Ibadan lure unsuspecting people into their trap by posing as ladies in their heavy makeup and attractive weave ons.

One of the suspects, Lawal Kabir claims to be a devout Muslim and considers only Fridays and the Ramadan period as sacred days in the whole year when he thinks he should not engage in armed robbery, he said, he would go to the mosque to pray to God to forgive all his criminal tendencies only to continue his devilish acts thereafter. Unfortunately, he was arrested on Friday after observing the Jumat prayers.


Ayodele Olaitan, who wore a mask, one of the tools they use in their nefarious activities shook his head in regret and said: “It was my friends that pushed me into this. I joined the gang sometime ago and I have participated in at least three robbery operations.

Sunday Omooba from Ogbomoso who says he is a member of the Oodua Peoples Congress, OPC said he took charge of the armoury for the gang. I don’t rob with them. In fact, I did not know that they were using the bullets to rob. I also supplied that pump action gun to them. I bought the gun for N70,000 from a friend. If I knew that they would use the weapons for robbery, I would not give them.”

The Investigating Police Officer in charge of the case alleged that Omooba supplied the pump action gun and killed the owner of the gun so that he could get the gun from him and did not give the money he promised to give him.
