31 Suspects Arrested As Lagos Taskforce Raids Black Spots In Oshodi, Ilupeju, Mushin

The Lagos State Task Force has sacked two of its officers over an alleged phone theft during a recent raid.

Naija News reports that the spokesman of the task force, Gbadeyan Abdulraheem, in a statement, said the incident happened during a raid in the Gowon area of Lagos.

Abdulraheem said the officers’ misconduct were captured on CCTV, adding that the Chairman of the Lagos State Taskforce, CSP Adetayo Akerele, condemned their action.

The statement read, “The Lagos State Taskforce has dismissed two of its personnel following their involvement in theft during a recent raid. The operation, conducted at a hotel in Gowon Estate known for harboring drug users and traffickers, resulted in numerous arrests. However, the integrity of the raid was compromised by the actions of two officials whose misconduct was captured on CCTV.

“The culprits, Fatai Yusuf (42) and Hammed Garuba (38), were found guilty of stealing mobile phones from the scene. Both individuals, serving as paramilitary officers within the agency, were subjected to a meticulous investigation by the agency’s Disciplinary Committee. Upon confirmation of their guilt, they were summarily dismissed from service and will face immediate prosecution for theft.

“CSP Adetayo Akerele, Chairman of the Lagos State Taskforce, strongly denounced their actions, reaffirming the agency’s unwavering commitment to integrity and accountability. He issued a stern admonition to all personnel, emphasizing that any breach of ethical conduct would attract severe consequences.

“The Lagos State Taskforce is guided by principles of discipline, equity, and justice. Any act that compromises the agency’s credibility or erodes public trust will be addressed decisively and without hesitation.”
