A certain 32-year-old man identified as Akiri-Kemepamini Wisdom, who allegedly participated in a bank robbery in the FESTAC area of Lagos state, has been arrested by the state police command.

NAIJACRUX recalls that on Wednesday, October 14, the said robbery gang stormed two commercial banks in FESTAC Town during which a mother and her child were shot dead.

Subsequently, one Diokoro Chinedu alongside Wisdom, were apprehended by the Igando Police Division along the LASU-Iba Road and 86 bullets, the sum of N134,6 75, an AK-49 rifle, a Nigerian Army cap and a T-shirt with the inscription, ?Gallant Patrol?, were recovered from them.


The police revealed that the duo who were on an unregistered motorcycle, were arrested during a stop-and-search, while a third suspect, also on the motorcycle, escaped. A bag was said to have been recovered from them also.

Wisdom, a native of Ese Odo Local Government Area of Ondo State, said he and the runaway suspect were given an instruction by their boss, identified simply as TK, to take the bag to a man, whose name he claimed not to know.

Wisdom, confessing before newsmen, said: ?I am a fisherman. It was my friend, Kinikini, who carried the bag. We were told by our boss to deliver the bag to another man. I am an errand boy to the gang leader. He and his boys stay in the creeks. He has many guns and I do not know how many he uses for operation.

?They usually give me about N4,000 for such delivery. Now that I have been arrested, I know I am dead because they will be trailing me thinking I have leaked their secrets to the police.?
