The Ogun State Police Command have arrested two men, 22-year old Akindele Ramon and 20-year old Paul King, who robbed a woman lecturer at Unity area of Iyesi Ota in Ado-Odo Ota Local government area of the State.

According to the Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, the two suspected robbers were arrested following a distress call received from the victim, one Busola Oke Salako, at about 11pm that her house was under the siege of armed robbers.

On receiving the call, the DPO Onipanu Division, SP Sangobiyi Johnson, quickly mobilized his anti-robbery men to the scene where the two suspects were promptly arrested with the help of members of the Community.

The victim, Mrs. Busola Oke Salako, explained to the Police that she was inside the house with her house maid when her generator suddenly went off which prompted her to ask the house maid to go and check what the problem was.  Immediately the girl opened the door, the two marauders held her, covered her mouth with cloth and threatened to kill her if she made noise.
The screaming of the maid when she was suddenly grabbed alerted the woman who quickly bolted the door from the back before making a distress call to the Police and some members of the Community.

On interrogation, one of the suspects, Akindele Ramon, disclosed that it was Paul King who gave information about the victim to him and one Rapheal Solarin now at large. He stated further that Paul King lives in the same neighborhood with the victim which gave him opportunity to know more of her movement.

Recovered from them were: One UTC knife and one ordinary knife.
Meanwhile, the Ogun State Commissioner of Police, CP Ahmed Iliyasu, has ordered the immediate transfer of the suspects to FSARS for discrete investigation and prosecution.
