My Village People Charmed Me With Robbery – Suspect Moans [See Photo]
A suspected armed robber, 28- year-old Emehelu Ndubuisi and his
accomplice have been arrested by the Lagos State Police Command.
Police say the duo belong to an armed robbery syndicate which
allegedly snatched cars and terrorised motorists in the Lagos
metropolis.
In his statement to the police, Ndubuisi, who was arrested alongside
another gang member, Uche Chukwu, 21, claimed that his family members
were responsible for his inability to stop the act.
His story:
"I am standing trial in court for a robbery case. I used to sell motor
spare parts at the Ladipo Market, Oshodi. I was initially arrested by
the police in February this year, and was charged to the Ikeja
Magistrate's Court.
"I was remanded in the Kirikiri Medium Prison for some weeks during
which I met one convict, Ogaga. He had spent three years in the
prison. He told me some men wanted to sell a stolen vehicle, but I did
not listen to him.
"After I secured my bail, I went to my village to attend my
grandmother's burial and I noticed some family members were not happy
to see me. When I returned from the trip, I did not know how I
listened to Ogaga's advice.
"I had sworn never to rob again, but my village people are very evil.
They must have charmed me with robbery. It was at the point of
collecting the stolen vehicle in Lagos that the police re-arrested
me."
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu,
confirmed the arrest.
