According to him, three suspects were arrested on Tuesday, while four were arrested on Thursday at different parts of Ikorodu in Lagos following intelligence.

The commissioner assured residents of Lagos State that he will tackle cultism, robbery and kidnapping headlong.

Fayoade, who solicited the support of CRAN members, stressed that media practitioners were part of his “eyes and ears” in getting feedback and other information.

He said he was also partnering the judiciary with a view to ensuring that arrested criminals were kept away for a long time.

The police boss said he would be transparent in his operations, stressing that no officer would be covered up for any wrongdoing.

According to Fayoade, he will always ensure that his officers and men carried out their duties professionally, requesting members of the public to give him information on any unprofessional conduct from them.
