Hello Friends!
The police in Ogun State on Sunday said an armed robbery suspect was mistakenly shot dead by his colleague during a robbery in the Ogijo area of the state.
The police also said they had dislodged a cult group from the Ogun State College of Health Technology, Ilese Ijebu, and arrested two suspects.
The Police Public Relations Officer for the state, Mr. Muyiwa Adejobi, said three suspected robbers had broken into the house of one Mojeed Jamiu and attempted to rob him when one of them mistakenly killed their colleague.
Adejobi, an assistant superintendent of police, said in a statement made available to journalists in Abeokuta, that following the accidental discharge which instantly killed one of them, the two others fled the scene, leaving their colleague’s corpse behind.
The PPRO said the police had taken the corpse to the mortuary of Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital, Sagamu.
He said, “An armed robber misfires colleague: On Saturday, 2nd June at about 1300 hours, one Mojeed Jamiu ‘M’ of Ogijo area of Ogun State came to the station and reported that on June 1, 2012, at about 1300 hours, three armed men came to his house to rob him.
“Fortunately for Mojeed, one of the robbers misfired a colleague of his while the robbery operation was on. The body of the robber has since been deposited at OSUTH mortuary.
“One locally-made double-barrelled gun and three expended cartridges were recovered from the scene by a team led by SP Toyin Afolaogun, DPO Ogijo. Efforts are on to arrest the fleeing ones.”
Concerning the dislodgment of the cult group from the College of Health Technology, the statement further stated that the police had arrested a 400 level student of the institution, Musediku Idris, and a female suspect, Bilikisu Jimoh, said to be a “non-student.”
The police added that the cooperation of the school management with the security agencies made the dislodgement of the cult group possible.
They promised to uproot cultism from the various institutions of learning and the other places where the menace might still be existing, saying, “All hands are on deck to fight against cult activities in Ogun State.”
