 Armed Robbery Suspect Steals Police Phone Inside Patrol Van


A 23-year-old armed robbery suspect, Godwin Emmanuel has admitted to stealing a police officer’s phone from a patrol van while being transported to the Osun State Police Command.


Emmanuel was arrested along with two others—28-year-old Olajide Kareem and 33-year-old Mike Emmanuel—who are accused of robbing residents and sexually assaulting a 65-year-old woman on the Ilesa-Osu Expressway in Osun State.

The woman was taking her husband to the hospital when the attack occurred.

The Spokesperson of Osun State Police Command, Yemisi Opalola, while parading the suspects on Friday at the Command headquaters in Osogbo, explained that “the three suspects rob motorists and passengers of their belongings. In one of the incidents, a bus driver was shot in his leg but was subsequently rushed to Seventh-day Adventist Hospital in Ile-Ife where he received treatment.


“Consequently, Olajide was arrested in the bush and he confessed that he was a member of a five-man gang of armed robbers who came from the Ikorodu area in Lagos state to perpetrate their acts in Osun State. The other two suspects were arrested.”


Speaking with newsmen, Godwin said: “I was arrested for armed robbery. When I was been transported to the Police Command in Osogbo, inside the police patrol van that I was conveyed, I stole a phone. I don’t know that it is a police phone. I beg to make una no vex.


“I told the police not to be angry with me. I don’t know when I did that. I took the phone into the police cell without them knowing. I removed the SIM card, I want to use the phone to call my people because they don’t know I have been arrested for armed robbery.

“I have been here for about 2 months. They later came to search me in the cell where I was and discovered the phone on me. Please tell them to forgive me. I won’t do it again.”
