PHOTO: Police Arrest Lagos Terror Robbery Gang Led By A 19 Year Old by harbdulrasaq88(m): 5:30pm On Jun 21, 2015
The Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) last week arrested members of a notorious seven-man robbery gang that had been terrorizing Iyana-Ipaja, Dopemu and other areas of the state, including neighbouring Sango-Ota in Ogun.



The deadly gang led by Taiwo Amosu, 19 operated by executing house-to-house raid and subjecting their victims to severe beatings before dispossessing them of cash and other valuables.



The suspects disclosed that their victims’ financial status were usually judged by the interior décor of their apartments, adding that any of them who out of sheer stubbornness refused to release cash befitting of the gang’s estimation of them, risked being killed.



The Ogun state born Taiwo, said he tuned to robbery in search of greener pastures. “I am an orphan and I have a younger brother to take care of. I learnt aluminum work in order to fend for myself and my younger brother but due to power failure, I do not have work to do.



“My workshop is at Sango-Otta. It was in my search for greener pasture that I joined this robbery. I had gone to Agege that fateful day to play game with my friends – Owolabi, Akeem, Yaro, Damilola, Sanjo and Sunday – unknown to me, they were planning a robbery operation that night.



“I reluctantly followed them to a building at Agege where they carried out a room-to-room operation. At the end, we went back to Sango-Otta to share the loot. I was made the leader of the gang when our leader, Damilola, left the gang, but he was still controlling us from where he was and we sent him returns. We usually torture any victim who claims not to have money in their houses.



“Such comments provoke us. We knew the financial status of our victims because we usually carried out an assessment of them before striking. So, we did not condone lie or pretense from them because robbery is a serious business. In one of the operations at New Garage, we disarmed security men of their arms. When we accost any security man during operation, we normally use him as a bait to gain entry into the apartments and at the end, we would lock our victims from outside.



“We only covered our faces in areas where we feel we could be recognized. But we hardly operate around our places of abode. Our targets during operation are phones, laptops and cash. We do not shoot our victims; we only beat them and threatened to shoot if they misbehaved. We usually share our loot at Agege Motor Park.



“I get between N10,000 to N30,000 at the end of each operation depending on how much was realized”, stated Taiwo who was also said to have been detained last year at the dreaded SARS over a case of cultism.



He was reportedly the first to be apprehended by SARS operatives. His confession led to the arrest of two other suspected members of the gang; Jamiu Amsat, 28 and Owolabi Aremu, 22.

Another suspect who was identified as the amourer for the gang, and who is simply called Amsat, claimed he had never gone to any operation with the gang. He only admitted to being the gang’s armourer.



According to him, “I have never gone to rob with them. I only keep their weapons at the end of which I got between N15,000 and N20,000. Several times, they tried to convince me to join them but I could not because I do not have the emotions to stand it and I do not want to kill anyone till I die.”

However, the third suspect, Owolabi Aremu, boldly described himself as the gang’s ‘bad man’, disclosing that during operation, he usually intimidated their victims with his deep voice that sounds like a roaring lion. Aremu who resides at Atubaje Street in Agege opened up: “Whenever we approached our victims and they refused to part with money befitting our assessment of them, I would shout in my baritone voice which usually put fear into them.



If, for instance, we assessed a victim for N500,000 and they brought N100,000, I would hit them hard in the face and shout, thereby forcing them to bring out the required amount. We usually take Indian hemp and alcholic drink before going for operation. That way, we would be able to do and undo.”

Ishilove Seun seun lalasticlala hope you guys had a lovely night? As for me I slept like a baby because my governor in Abia State has tightened security to the extent that this kind of news cannot come out from Gods Own State where Gods chosen servant Dr Okezie Victor Chibuikem Ikpeazu is overseeing and piloting the affairs of the State. Ishilove and lalasticlala please perform your administratative duties or else you will be placed on half salary.
