Man, 20, Arrested For Stealing  Bridge Lights In Lagos

The post further read that Olanrewaju confessed that he removed the first fittings and also vandalised some of the facilities, after which he handed over the items to his friend to assist him in selling them.

The suspect has been charged in court.
