It Takes Me 4 Minutes To Steal A Vehicle’s Brain Box - Arrested Robber by AutoReportNG: 10:55am On Aug 26, 2019
The operatives of the Lagos State Rapid Response Squad, a unit of the Lagos State Police Command, have arrested two suspects, who specialized in vandalizing vehicles and stealing their brain boxes.

The suspects - Sodiq Musa, 28 years old and Saidu Atiku, 34 years old, were arrested at 27, Awolowo road Ikeja with three Toyota vehicle brain boxes while Ridwan Adamu escaped with the fourth box.

One of the suspects, Sodiq claimed he was a graduate of Political Science from one of the Nigerian University where he studied Political Science before He came to Lagos in 2017 in search of greener pasture.

“I worked in Lagos as a barbeque man in various hotels and events before I met Ridwan who introduced me to brain box theft where He taught me all the antics and styles.”

“We use ‘magic stone’ that is, a vehicle spark plug to break vehicle windows without attracting attention. It takes two minutes to loose a Toyota Hiace bus brain box and it takes four minutes to lose a Toyota Hilux box”.

“The spark plug reduces the noise and effects quick break of any vehicle window and we tie the plug in a handkerchief in a situation where we have multiple vehicles to work on.”

In his confessional statement to the RRS operatives, Sodiq told the officers that Saidu was a security guard who works for a company located on that street where they were arrested and had earlier in the day called Ridwan who is the leader of the team to come feast on vehicles belonging to their company which are parked outside the company’s premises but which he Saidu is supposed to guard.

On getting the hint, Ridwan and Sodiq set to action and got to the venue around 1:00 a.m. The broke into two Toyota Hiace and two Toyota Hilux belonging to the company who employed Saidu as night guard stealing their brain boxes before another security nearby raised alarm. This led to their arrest. Sodiq was caught with three boxes while Ridwan fled with one.

Sodiq was thereafter taken to RRS Headquarters, where he confessed the involvement of Saidu. He disclosed that he invited them for the operation and was reported to have slept beside the vehicles, which they vandalized and stole from while Saidu cooperated and pretended like nothing was happening.

“We specialised in stealing Toyota brain boxes because they fetch good money in the market. The demand for them are higher than any other brand. For example, we sold a Toyota Hiace bus for N40,000 while that of Toyota Hilux goes for N20,000 respectively”.


“Ridwan connects with the buyers of the brain boxes who he claimed are from the popular spare part market in Lagos. We always meet the buyers outside the market where we exchange our loots for cash.

They usually pay in cash and will never wait more than two minutes as we already have an understanding on the prices”.

“Ridwan gives me 40% of whatever we make from the sale of our loots. He has never disclosed where we were to carry out our next operation because he feels he is my boss.

Our target areas are usually night clubs where people come with different types of vehicles. We strike around 1:00 a.m. - 2:00 a.m. when most of the clubbers would have started enjoying themselves”.

The suspect also confessed to have stolen two boxes at a popular night club in Lekki, another at Ogunlana Drive and Allen Avenue, Ikeja. All these areas house popular night clubs and joints in Lagos.

The Commissioner of Police, CP Zubairu Muazu in his reaction to the incident directed the transfer of the case to State CID, Panti.

He advised nightclubbers in the State to be extra careful while enjoying themselves and leaving their vehicles parked where it’s not safe.

Even Engineers based abroad can't do this in 30mins.

Most good and intelligent brains God gave to some Nigerians are used for fraud and stealing.

UNBELIEVABLE!!

All Unrighteousness is Sin
1John 5:17a.
1Corithians 6:9
Know ye not that the Unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom.

Looking into GOD'S Word( The Holy Bible), I intend to outline sin. So that we could know what we need to do away with. It seems Many Today do not even know what sin is.

We Live in very Dangerous Times and there is no Repentance in the Grave.

1Cor6:9-10
Fornication( Sex Outside marriage)
Idolaters( Worship or service to any other than GOD ALMIGHTY)
Adultery(sexual relationship with or by a married person )
Effeminate ( A Man trying to be like a woman or vice versa)
Homosexuality
Thieves
Covetousness ( Greed)
Drunkards
Revilers ( Abuser)
Extortioners( Obtaining things by force)

Revelation 21:8
Fear
Unbelief ( Not Believing in JESUS CHRIST)
Murder
Liars
Sorcery( witchcraft, wizardry,voodoo,enchantments, divination)
Whoremongers( prostitution or engaging prostitutes)
Galatians 5:19-21
Envy
Variance
Emulations
Wrath
Strife
Heresies
Seditions
Deuteronomy 22:5
A man dressing like a woman or Vice Versa
Jeremiah 4:30
Paintings, earings , etc


This Message is Specifically For Somebody. It's not for Argument sake... and Unnecessary arguments will be ignored..

Make Amends with JESUS CHRIST where you need to. There is No Repentance after death.

He That Hath Ears , Let Him/ Her Hear

Toyota Hiace and Hilux's brain box being sold 40k and 20k respectively, this is wickedness now. The buyers should be arrested.
