LAGOS POLICE ARREST SUSPECTED LEADER OF A ONE-CHANCE GANG
Operatives from the Lagos State Police Command have taken into custody 49-year-old Ndubisi George, the alleged mastermind of one-chance robberies.
This was revealed on Monday in a statement posted on SP Benjamin Hundeyin’s X account, the command’s public relations officer.
In Nigeria, the term “one chance” is frequently used to describe robberies in which robbers pose as commercial drivers and pick up unsuspecting passengers with the intention of robbing them.
Hundeyin claims that George is the head of a gang that commits robberies in the state’s Itire, Aguda, Cele, and Surulere regions.
The statement read, “Operatives of #LagosPoliceNG have arrested one Ndubisi George ‘m’ aged 49, leader of a one-chance robbery syndicate operating within Itire, Aguda, Cele and Surulere.
“One grey Toyota Camry was recovered from him while efforts are on to arrest other members of the syndicate.
“The suspect has been arraigned and remanded to prison till March 18, 2024 for continuation of hearing.”
