MICHAEL AKINOLA

The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Hakeem Odumosu, has once again shown the milk of human kindness in him by rescuing a stranded woman and three children at the wee hours of the day.
 P.M.EXPRESS reports that the Police boss, Odumosu, rescued Mrs. Nafisat Omitade and her children at Ojodu-Berger area of the State, where they were stranded over the weekend around 12am during his patrol at night.
It was learnt that the woman left Osogbo, Osun State, with the children with the purpose of uniting with her husband, who resides at Owode- Idiroko, Ogun State.According to the woman, she boarded a bus from Osogbo to Ibadan then took another to Lagos. She said all the way from Osogbo to Ibadan there were no Policemen or other security agencies on the road so it was seamless driving.
“I am aware there is curfew in the country but because my husband wants me to bring his children, that was why I decided to take the risk to bring them down. But I never knew I would get to Lagos late.””It was when we got to Lagos that I saw Policemen that stopped the vehicle that conveyed me from Ibadan. If there were Police officers on the road from Ibadan I wouldn’t get to Lagos. When we got to Berger Bus Stop, every passenger in the bus was asked to come down but after a while they allowed me and my children to go” she said.She added: “It was when I and my children were wondering about that the Police boss, who was passing by saw us where we were standing helplessly and came to our rescue”.”I want to thank him because if not for him I don’t know what would have happened to me and my children. He took good care of us before taking my children and I to my grandmother’s house at Ojodu before proceeding on our journey the following day to Idi-Iroko, Ogun State.”The impression I had about Nigeria Police before now has changed totally with what the Police boss did for my children and I. I will forever remain grateful to him and his men for saving our lives.”Mrs. Abibat Famuyiwa, the grandmother also thanked CP Odomosu for bringing her daughter and grand children home safely.
