Man Arrested For Stealing 7 Phones At 'The Experience' Gospel Concert(photos) by itsdumebi(m): 8:00am On Dec 20, 2017

The directive of Lagos Commissioner of Police, Mr Edgal Imohimi to officers of the command to keep eagle eyes at venues of a gathering of people this yuletide yielded dividends with the arrest of a suspected pickpocket with seven stolen mobile phones belonging to gospel faithfuls that attended the annual musical concert tagged ‘The Experience’.

The suspect, Lateef Nurudeen of 10, Obadina Street, Lagos Island, was arrested by men of Rapid Response Squad in early December 2017 at around 12:45 a.m. at the programme in Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos.

Lateef, 19 years old, who was in the company of his six other colleagues at the convention, was sighted holding a bag where he concealed the seven stolen phones.

The suspect who on interception by the officers posted to the venue of the convention told the police on interrogation that he was a barber.

On further scrutiny, Lateef claimed that he saw the bag underneath a flower bed when he couldn’t give satisfactory answer about the contents of the bag.

Found inside the bag were seven different mobiles phones, charms and purse. The purse contained identity card and ATM debit card belonging to one Chris Nkum Chinedu.

The suspect, sources revealed, confessed to being the owner of the charms found inside the bag. PoliticsNGR learnt that he used the charms for protection.

Already, investigators have identified four owners of the seven phones. The owners, who reported at the RRS headquarter in Alausa were: Ukwajiba Felix, Ekhorelen Ruth, Kpanou Estelle and Kemi Ahmed.

The four owners reported at the RRS headquarters when officers called their relatives whose numbers were found on the stolen phones.

The owners who have been looking for their mobile phones before leaving the venue of the programme noted that they didn’t know when their phones were removed from their bags and pockets.

One of the owners, Ukwajiuba, stated that immediately he discovered that his phone was missing, he reported the theft at Zone 2, Onikan, Lagos, where his details were taken.

The suspect, Lateef, an ex-convict stated that he saw the bag inside the flowers at TBS but owned up to being the owner of the charms found inside the bag. He confessed that the two charms found in the bags were for his protection, adding that he came to the church programme to pray and not to steal.

Defending being in possession of charms at church crusade, he said, “I pray a lot. The charms are for my personal protection. They have been with me for ages. They were specially prepared for my protection against evil. I came to the crusade to pray.

My friends that took to their heels when police started questioning me are confirmed troublemakers. They were at the programme only to cause commotion. That is what they do and how they make a living.

I am a troublemaker too but I came to that church programme to pray and not to steal. My friends ran because they knew I would be arrested. I pray a lot and that was why I was at the programme’, he stated.

Efforts to track down the suspect’s friends who were with him at the convention by RRS proved abortive as they have all abandoned their hideouts.

The Commissioner of Police, CP Imohimi Edgal directed that the case be transferred immediately to the Lagos State Criminal Investigation Department while efforts be intensified to arrest all other suspects involved in the theft.

He ordered that the stolen phones be released to their owners once they can provide evidence of ownership.

After almost 3years, I have come to realize that Patients Goodluck Jonathan aka Mama Peace was right after all with her statement; "I'LL RATHER KILL MYSELF THAN COMMIT SUICIDE".

There's a big difference between killing one's self and committing suicide.
Killing one's self involves doing something with conscious negligence and having a catastrophic or fatal outcome.
E.g A man knows that he has a bad tyre but decided to manage it "like that" on a long trip, accident happened and he died. He had successfully killed himself.

Most times when incidents like this happens, we ascribe it to " Our Village People".

While suicide on the other had is the deliberate and intentional termination of one's own life due to unpleasant social, economic, financially, mental, physical, emotional or religious circumstances.

Everyday even though we don't commit suicide, many Nigerians kill themselves through conscious willing negligence. When it goes right, they ascribe and attribute it to God. But when such negligence produce unhealthy, fatal or catastrophic outcomes they attribute it to the devil or "Our Village People".

One day, two young boys were in the field,staring at a lady bathing.Then the first boy started running and so did the second one,When they stopped the second one asked: "Why are you running like a mad person?" Then the other replied, "It's because my mother said that if I ever look at a naked woman's body, I will turn into stone and I felt something getting hard in my pants."

He went with his Experienced Skill to the Experience but the whole Experience turned out to be a new Experience, now so much Experience he has to learn in his new environment filled with experienced gurus.

Enjoy Your Experience Mr Thief.
