He said the suspects were arrested in Mushin, Lagos State while a stolen Toyota car was recovered during the operation.

He also paraded Austin Omoh who was allegedly involved in an armed robbery incident in the state but was arrested in Maroko, Lagos State.

The police boss said a stolen Toyota Sequoia SUV with number plate AAA 631 HX was recovered from him.

The CP added that the police arrested one Wasiu Odubote for shop breaking and stealing in Igbeba, Ijebu-Ode.

He said Odubote and his gang members broke into a spare parts shop on Old Ondo Road, adding that the timely intervention of the Divisional Police Officer and his team led to his arrest.

He said other gang members managed to escape while a tricycle with number plate GBE 144VX was recovered.

He also paraded Adedapo Taiwo, Arogundade Idowu, Noah Jogunom, and James Abiodun who were arrested in Kobape, Abeokuta, for allegedly planning to disrupt the inauguration of the state governor, Dapo Abiodun’s second term.

“In the same vein, the police also apprehended Akindele Femi, Abodurin Afeez and Ishola Ayorinde for their affiliation with different cult groups and engagement in criminal activities.”

The police also arrested Sulaiman Ajagunjeun and Opeyemi Adesegun in Itoko for their alleged involvement in cult-related fights, and they reportedly confessed to being members of the Aiye confraternity.

Speaking on the increasing cases of cultism in the state, Oladimeji said the command will always go for the suspects.
