Spokesperson of the Command, SP Olumuyiwa Adejobi said the suspects had attacked one Mr Adejare Adetayo and his wife in the traffic when Police detectives on an undercover operation in the area went after the hoodlums and arrested nine with their operational weapons.


The State Commissioner of Police, CP Hakeem Odumosu, while commending the Police operatives for the successful operation and arrest of the hoodlums, reassured Lagosians of adequate security and public safety within the length and breadth of the state.
