MAN ARRESTED IN LAGOS FOR STEALING SOLAR TRAFFIC LIGHTS
Recently, the Lagos State government installed some solar-powered streetlights in some parts of the state. A few weeks later, the solar panels are being stolen.
In a post on his X handle, the Public Relations Officer of the Lagos State Police Command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin wrote; “The police was informed and got to work. A few days back, 30-year-old Emmanuel Achogwu was arrested by officers from Alausa Division on Ikosi Road with four solar panels, moments after he removed them.
“Investigation reveals that the suspect was one of the technicians contracted to install the solar-powered streetlights. Investigation is ongoing.”
