SHOCKER! 2 Members Of A Royal Family Arrested For Armed Robbery

Two members of one of the ruling royal families in Ogun State said to be dangerous armed robbers met their waterloo on Sunday when men of the Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, in Ogun State intercepted them with a blood-stained jeep that was robbed in Lagos.

Nemesis caught up with the duo, identified as Ademola Adeniyi and Ajayi Adesina, after they were said to have offered the sum of N500,000 to the customs officers to evade arrest shortly after a robbery operation at 5am. Their attempts were however rebuffed by the men of the Customs who insisted that they must face the music.

The Comptroller of Customs in the state, Akande Bamidele who paraded the suspects before handing them over to police said Adesina was initially arrested with Acura MDX Jeep with no number plate and later his colleague in crime, Ademola, was also nabbed with one Passat marked, Abuja KWL 560 AA, in Ewekoro, Ogun State.

Addressing newsmen shortly before the display of 406 cartons of frozen poultry products worth three million naira, the comptroller said Ajayi was initially arrested with the blood-stained Acura and he later called his alleged ring leader, Ademola on phone to rescue him.

The Customs boss further disclosed that the second suspect, Ademola later arrived the scene and offered the custom officers bribe to release Adesina. According to him, the suspects who were later handed over to the police in the state made confessional statements confirming that they rob at gun point at Bariga in Lagos that Sunday.

While receiving the suspects on behalf of the police state command, the Head of Ogun Police Command state Criminal Investigations Department, Mr. Fola Ogunkoya promised to investigate the case and subsequently charge them to court.
