members of a robbery syndicate that specialize
in snatching money and valuables from
unsuspecting passengers were nabbed by angry
mob along stadium road, Ilorin on Wednesday.
According to the unsuspecting victim, “I went to
change some currency from naira to dollars at
a bureau de change. After the transactions, I
stopped the taxi with the men inside.
Getting to my destination, I asked the driver to
stop but he said he wanted to pick someone
ahead before dropping me so he moved up a bit
and stopped. continue for more pictures..
I tried to open the door but it was difficult so
the man near me moved closer to me, I never
suspected he wanted to rob me, tried to assist
in opening the door. As I dropped from the cab,
I discovered that I have been robbed so I
quickly raised alarm, they quickly threw down
my money and sped off, so passers bye
assisted in giving them a hot chase with Okada
and apprehended the two of them”. It took the
quick intervention of men from Special Anti
Robbery Squared, SARS, for the suspects not to
have died of the beating sustained by angry
mob.
