The police in Lagos State have arrested five armed men, suspected to be fake members of the South West Security Network, popularly known as Amotekun, for shooting some residents of Igbo Olodo village along Ketu Omu Road in the Ikosi Ejinrin Local Council Development Area of Lagos State.

Those who were arrested have been identified as Mojeed Lookman, Ajani Tunde, Adebayo Abdulahi, Opabola Rofiat and Abiola James.

The suspects were arrested by policemen attached to the state police command while reacting to a distress call by residents of the Lagos community.

The police also recovered: four (4) locally made guns with twenty-two (22) live ammunitions from the arrested suspects.

We gathered that the invasion of the community by the armed men came some months after a 49-year-old resident of the community, Alade Bello was hacked to death by some armed hoodlums.

The gunmen, who were led by a man simply identified as Biodun Bashiru, claimed to have been mobilized to Lagos from Ede Osun State .
