to the riverine area of Ishawo community in Ikorodu to begin the demolition of illegal waterfront shanties within the creeks, where criminal elements hibernate to perpetrate their nefarious activities.
The state’s Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, who briefed newsmen in Ishawo on the ongoing operations in the creeks by a combined team of the State Marine Police, the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), mobile policemen and men from the anti-kidnapping squad, in coordination with the local vigilance group, said 13 suspected kidnappers have already been arrested and are currently aiding the team to track down the remaining suspects on the run.
It would be recalled that two weeks ago,
four policemen and an Army Captain lost their lives after an ambush were unleashed on them by suspected militants in Ishawo. Owoseni said the governor immediately ordered a joint operation to hunt down the perpetrators, adding that the operation was yielding positive results.
