ODUDUWA NEWS has just gathered that a man was arrested by the the security committee of Abayomi Estate, Onipepeye, Old-Ife Road in Ibadan while he was trying to scoop diesel out of generator powering the street lights in Ibadan.
The young man who was caught and paraded by the security men while he was siphoning diesel out of the generator that powers the street lights installed by the Oyo State Government has been handed over to the Police for further investigations.
Before he was caught, the thief who siphoned two 4-litre kegs filled with diesel stolen from the generators last night said to have been engaging in such act for a long period of time before he met his Waterloo.
The residents in the axis had been complaining of streetlights not powering on due to a lack of fuel in the generator being used to power the streetlights.
