Days after Ogun State Police Command rescued the
former head of the Anglican Communion Church of
Nigeria, Primate Peter Jasper Akinola, and his daughter
from kidnappers den, the command said it foiled an
automated teller machine (ATM) robbery in Abeokuta.
The police public relations officer in the state, Muyiwa
Adejobi, in a statement, said policemen operating an
Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC) posted to Rounder
Point in Abeokuta North Local Government Area of Ogun
State received a call from the security department of the
Crescent University Abeokuta that some armed men were
operating at the ATM Machine Room, property of a new
generation bank, located within the premises of the
institution around 1.30 a.m. yesterday.
“The policemen responded promptly and met five
university security guards on duty tied by the armed men
while the robbers escaped through the fence of the school”,
Adejobi said.
“However, the armed robbers could not have access to the
ATM Strong Room but damaged the main security door to
the ATM Room and tampered with some gadgets therein.
“Their instruments for breaking the ATM machine,
including two cylinders containing methane gas, two sledge
hammers, pliers, screw drivers, lighters, etc, were left
behind because of police presence and recovered by the
police for further investigation.
“One Abdulliahi Tunde,20yrs, a welder by profession, has
been arrested around the university when he was making
suspicious calls on phone about 1: 10 pm while policemen
on surveillance were combing the bush around the school;
and he has been transferred to Special Anti Robbery Squad
for thorough investigation.
“The command therefore wishes to advise the general
public particularly those dealing with liquid cash, like
owners of cold rooms, petrol stations, shopping malls etc to
be more security conscious during this Yuletide season and
beyond as the hoodlums have been barred from banks in
Ogun State by the police”.
