Operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) about 5:00 a.m. on Tuesday, 26th September, 2023, while on patrol of Freedom Way, Ikate, Lekki, arrested two suspects stealing fabricated metal drainage covers in the area.
The suspects Jubreel Haruna, 29, and Adewale Rabiu, 27, were caught loading the drainage covers into a minibus popularly called “Korope” with the registration number: KTU 45 YD when the operatives accosted them.
They have been charged to court for prosecution in line with the directives of Commander RRS, CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi.
Recently, it is a common place in Lagos that the rate at which miscreants steal manholes and metal fabricated drainage covers exposes motorists to danger as they run into such holes on the expressway leading to accidents of huge proportions.
