Ogun Police Arrest Two Suspects Over Illegal Firearm Possession by Ainaolusegun(op): 2:44pm On May 10
The Ogun State Police Command has arrested two suspects over alleged conspiracy and unlawful possession of firearm in Ifo area of the state.

The suspects, identified as forty-seven-year-old Adeola Mathew and forty-eight-year-old Rasheed Omoniyi, were apprehended during an intelligence-led operation carried out by operatives of the Ifo Division.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Mr Oluseyi Babaseyi in a statement in Abeokuta said the operation took place in the early hours of Friday along Ibogun Road in the NITEL Area of Ifo, where detectives stormed a suspected criminal hideout.

Mr Babaseyi explained that Adeola Mathew was arrested at the scene, while a search of the premises led to the recovery of a locally made pistol concealed within the hideout.

He noted that the case would be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Eleweran Abeokuta, for further investigation and prosecution.

Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Police in Ogun State, Mr Bode Ojajuni, commended the operatives for their swift response and reaffirmed the Command’s commitment to tackling crime and protecting residents across the state.

You are right on this one
Re: Ogun Police Arrest Two Suspects Over Illegal Firearm Possession by Henjor48(m): 1:58am On May 11
But why don't you guys arrest those fulani herders who openly roam around with sophisticated assault rifles, like AK47 & 49? Abi, are them above the laws? I am asking this because what's good for Musa is also good for Emeka.

So, stop treating southerners as less citizens and Notherners as first class citizens

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
