Robbery suspects cut bars, escape from police cell


Two of the robbery suspects, who were arrested while they were operating on Iju Road, in the Agege area of Lagos, have escaped from the police cell.

PUNCH Metro learnt that three suspected members of the gang, which reportedly laid siege to a hotel and some residences of Sands Avenue, off Iju Road, had been handed over to the Pen Cinema Police Division, before two of them escaped from the cell.

It was gathered that policemen, who were on duty on the fateful day, had been arrested, while the fleeing suspects had yet to be re-arrested.

Our correspondent learnt that on Sunday, August 9, at about 2am, the armed robbers, said to be about 10 men, invaded the area, and robbed a hotel and some private homes.

It was learnt that the robbers carted away money and valuables from the hotel lodgers, workers, and other places during the operation.

PUNCH Metro gathered that men of the Oodua Peoples’ Congress, who were the local vigilance group in the area, however, apprehended three of the robbers and took them to the Pen Cinema Police Division.

Our correspondent learnt that the three robbery suspects, identified as Dare Drain, Akeem AK, and Lekan Student, were locked up in the cell by the policemen on duty.

It was gathered that on Wednesday evening, two of the suspects had, however, cut through the burglar bars in the cell, and escaped from custody.

Victims of the robbery and the OPC men, who were aggrieved by the development, were said to have been invited by a policemen in the station, who pacified them that the robbers would be re-arrested.

When PUNCH Metro visited Sands Avenue on Tuesday, the manager of the hotel, which was robbed, declined to give any comment.

However, one of the workers, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the robbers carted away a huge amount of money and also injured the hotel’s guard.

He added that the robbers raped some of the hotel’s female workers, who had yet to resume work.

He said, “The robbery lasted for more than an hour. We were helpless. The robbers overpowered our security guard and injured him.

“They carted away valuables. They raped some of our female workers during the operation. I was told that the OPC men later caught three of them and took them to the police station.”

Speaking with PUNCH Metro, the OPC coordinator in the area, who did not want his name in print, said they were taken aback when the police in the Pen Cinema station told them that two of the suspects escaped from the cell.

He added that the suspects, who had yet to be re-arrested, raped some of their victims during the operation, including a 13-year-old.

He said, “The security man at the hotel, who is our member, recognised one of the robbers and led us to his place, where he was arrested. The man confessed to taking part in the operation. His name is Dare Drain, and he was caught in the Idi-Agbon area of Ifako.

“He was the one who took the OPC men to arrest the other two. The three that were caught on Sunday were taken to the police station.

“It was on Wednesday that information got to us that Drain and Akeem have escaped from the cell. We were shocked at the development. The DPO then invited us, and pleaded with us to assist the police with information to re-arrest them, adding that the policemen on duty had been detained.

“But as we speak, we have not got them. What the police told us was that the robbers cut the burglar bars, and escaped from the cell. The robbers, apart from carting away money, also raped their victims.

“The robbers were led by Dare Drain, he and his boys had earlier come to Tarkwa Crescent, before the Sands Avenue incident.”

Our correspondent learnt from a source that the robbery suspects lurked around Oju Irin area in Agege mostly at night.

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Patricia Amadin, however, said in a text message that there was no truth in the incident.

After spending 6 Good years in school, you really think I need an extra year to refresh and map out my future?
For real?

You start planning your future the minute you step into a university! Not 5 years after!

The average age of an M.sc student in the best universities in the UK is unbelievably. I'm talking 21-23 Years.

Time is really expensive!
Until we start treating it as such, we may not get value for it!

It is a good thing you said... but you can't compare Nigeria with developed contries. almost everything works over there because of their mindset compared to Naija..
I mean look at the number of admission seekers, job seekers and unemployed graduates every year.. some employers even claim Nigerian graduates are unemployable. Everyone feels differently but I dnt think it is a complete waste of time

I don know say na woman go post this thread... why una dey find wetin no lost?.. ok who told you that there's Mr Right or Mr Left?
even Miss extreme left want Mr Right... na God go help us o

@OP the best mistake you'll ever make is to overlook her actions through forgiveness or whatever... LOVE to me is subjective. it depends on so many things to work e.g chance, wealth, distance, time, sexual satisfaction etc. Just forget this one and move on with your life..#Shithappenz

1. ONLY THE YOUNG PAY THE PRICE, WHY?

Like the song, I have always wanted to be young and free. But to escape the rigor of NYSC, I needed to be a little more than that.
Why is it that only the Young pay the price?
I am 23 Years, apparently if I was just 7 years older, I wouldn’t be going through this Unnecessary Scheme.

How I wish I was Older


2. TO MANY UNCALCULATED RISKS

We Corp Members get involved in Road accidents, Election Violence, Bomb Explosion, Community fight, Religious Fights, Ethnic fights, and so on. It’s pitiable that only a few get noticed.
Our roads are more than bad. Corp Members risk too much when they embark on that 25 Hours long road trip to their state of deployment. Who bears this risk?
We risk too much by living in Adamawa, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Borno, Jos, Abuja, in fact anywhere that have recorded any form of terrorist attach in the last 5 Years.
It’s a pity some of our colleagues have died in road accidents and terrorist attacks.

NYSC is not worth our lives. we want out!


3. MANDATING NYSC INCONSISTENT WITH LIBERAL RIGHTS

The above is too much English. Let me explain in literal terms.
As a citizen, I am expected to be Law-Abiding. I am encouraged (not forced) to vote and to render voluntary service.
The act of Mandating National Youth Service before my rights of citizenship are extended is simply contrary to the purpose for which the country was founded and has endured.

My right to employment and contesting government offices shouldn’t be subject to my NYSC status.

It is wrong. THIS IS WRONG


4. MANDATING NATIONAL SERVICE DRAINS ITS VIRTUE

Why is it called National Youth Service in the first instance? It should be more like “Mandatory National Service”
We have to understand that for an Act to be Patriotic, it has to be voluntary. If it is required, it becomes nothing special.


5. NATIONAL SERVICE DISTRACTS US FROM OUR CAREER

To many of us, the one (1) Year National service is a big distraction to our career. Many of us go through the One year scheme and become rusty intellectual wise. No real challenge, we just sit and teach Primary 2 Kids all year long.


6. INCREASE IN IMMORALITY

Don’t be surprised.
The Service year unfortunately brings out the beast in our Youths as many of us see the NYSC year as a Jolli period where we go at the world. Little wonder there have been recurring cases of Corp Members impregnating their infant students.
But an Idle hand they say is the devil’s workshop.
Are Corp Members That Idle? YES THEY ARE! YES WE ARE!!!


7. WE ARE BAD TEACHERS, BAD ROLE MODELS

All thanks to the government’s questionable posting policy where 90% of corp members nationwide have been confined to the 4 walls of a classroom. Corp members now call the shots in the Nation’s most critical part of the economy.
This leaves the schools, students, parents and community at the mercy of quack, Hot, unfit and unprofessional educators.
Little wonder our students keep failing WAEC.

8. IT IS TOO EXPENSIVE

How much do the government (State and Federal) spend on the seemingly unnecessary Programme.
I might not be so good at mathematics, but I can come with a rough estimate of about #350K on each corp member. Multiply that by close to a hundred thousand graduates that go through the scheme a year and you’ll have a feel of how much money the government is not getting value for.

Tax payer’s money they call it.


9. NYSC SHOULDN’T STOP US FROM LIVING

The above appear far fetched. Well it’s not.
How do you explain your absence at your Father’s burial?
How do you explain missing your own wedding? NYSC Head Count? HELL NO!!!
How do you explain loosing your Job?

That we are young graduates doesn’t mean we don’t have responsibilities. We have aging mothers to take care of; We have a Boy/Girl that calls us Daddy. We have siblings to look after;
We are sorry if we are unwilling to pack our bags to Kebbi. For some of us, Family comes first not the government. SORRY!!!

10. WE ARE TIRED

Tired of the peanut you pay us?
Tired of the ridiculously irritating houses you call NYSC Camps.
Tired of the ridiculous food you serve in camps.
Tired of the uncalculated risks
Tired of the double standards. The rich and famous don’t appear in Camps, they get their Certificates notwithstanding.
Tired of paying your staffs to Influence our Posting
Tired of loosing our Jobs, only to get the NYSC Certificate and start looking for them again.
Tired of Holding only the Young Ransom
We are Indeed Tired of the unnecessary scheme.

I am not good at telling long story, so this will be short, My best friend, a girl, had a boyfriend, whom i do not really relate to, their relationship had issues so she decided to take a break.
She called and asked if she could come to my place, i agreed, and was happy to have her, as even i had to just had a break up.
Long story short, she spent three days in my place, we ate from the same plate, and slept on the same bed for three days but i never touched her or made advance.
When she left my place, she called and asked if i am okay, that something must be wrong with me for not having sex with her or even touching her once througout when she was with me.
My honest thought through out her stay was that i was trying to help a friend who was heart broken, so i played the gentleman.
My people pls help me oh. Did i do wrong?

she wan collabo with you ni nw... she wan taste ur koboko...

pazienza:
The Oba should behave like a mature man, own up
to his mistakes.

Tender an unreseved apology to every Igbo person in Lagos state, the apology letter should be printed in all the major daily newspapers in Nigeria, and must be seen to have been duly signed by the Oba himself.

That's the only way this issue will die a natural death, that's how things are handled in civilized climes, and that's how it should be, anything less than this is unacceptable.

ABOMINATION... instead all your igwes and ezes in Igbo land should go to his royal highness to prostrate and beg for forgiveness on behalf of all igbos..
that's how it should be for peace to reign
