Detectives attached to the Lagos State Police Command have arrested
two brothers for using their mother’s car to rob unsuspecting ladies on
Lagos Island.
According to the state Commissioner Police, Fatai Owoseni, the
brothers, Ikenna Onunkwo (28) and Chinedu Onukwo (23), every morning use
to dress up and leave their home as if they are going to the office.
Nobody knew they used to go out each morning to rob. It was gathered
that in the evening, after office hours, the brothers, still using their
mother’s Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV), would offer to give female
passengers at bus stops lift. They would later rob them of their
valuables before pushing them out of the car.
He said: “Luck ran out on the two brothers after robbing a lady on
November 13, on their way from Lagos Island. The lady was able to get
the registration number of the vehicle. “She reported the incident to
the Bar Beach Police Station.
Through the assistance of the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC),
the vehicle was traced to a mechanic workshop at Surulere area of the
metropolis.” One of the suspects, Ikenna, the elder, vehemently denied
that he and his brother were robbers.
He said: “My brother and I studied at the Pan American University in
Cotonou. I went to school to defend my project only for me to receive a
phone call from my younger sister in Nigeria that my mother and brother
had been arrested for using her jeep to rob.
