RRS Rescues Tanker Driver And His Assistants From Armed Robbers. by naptu2(op): 11:41am On Mar 27, 2022*

Lagos State Police Command II @rrslagos767

Men of Lagos State Rapid Response Squad (RRS) in the early hours of Thursday rescued a tanker driver and his assistants from the captivity of gun – wielding robbers on Lekki – Epe Expressway, while they also recovered three guns, 11 live cartridges and machetes from robber’s vehicle.

Other items recovered from the robbers were: a tipper with the registration number: BDJ 271 XB, a chisel, back pack, hand gloves and a face mask.

The robbers, numbering about seven had around 1:00 a.m. used a blue colour tipper to block a truck loaded with 45,000 litres of premium motor spirit (pms) at Berger Bridge inward Epe, Lagos. The fuel tanker was heading to Oyo State.

The four occupants of the tipper ordered the truck driver and his assistants out of the vehicle. They drove away the 45,000 tanker while three others robbers who were hiding in the bush held hostage the truck driver and his assistants, identified as Falana Abiodun and Fatai Opeyemi, before leading them into the bush.

They were emerging from the bush around 4:00 a.m. with their hostages when patrolling Rapid Response Squad (RRS) team saw them and gave them a chase.

The robbers abandoned their vehicle, guns and machetes before escaping into the bush.
The 45,000-litre tanker was later found empty through the assistance of NUPENG members in Epe.

The Commissioner of Police, CP Abiodun Alabi has directed the Commander, Rapid Response Squad (RRS), CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi to transfer the case to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Panti, Yaba for further investigations.

CP Alabi further assured that all the suspects involved in the hijacking of the 45,000-litre tanker would be made to face justice.

Bad news everywhere!

Where exactly is this country heading to?!

Is it that these robbers don't read or listen to news on how mobs burn their comrades in the evil act when they get caught?

You mean RRS found the driver, his assistant and an empty tanker in the morning after they were robbed.

Not even one of them was caught.
RRS una weldone.
