RRS operatives of the Lagos State Police Command have arrested four suspects who specialise in tricking sellers of expensive mobile phones pretending to be online buyers and thereafter rob the sellers at the point delivery.
The RRS operatives, working on reports from victims of the same robbery perpetrated by the gang, had tracked Ehis and his gang to a location in Iba, where the gang shot the officers before escaping.
According to Ehis, a Chemical Engineering graduate of University of Benin, Ekpoma, Edo State,
"what I do is shop online for expensive phones and goods. I request the sellers to make home delivery.
I would send the delivery address to the seller. When the seller gets to the address, he would call me and I would control my boys to go to the delivery address and rob the seller".
He stressed, "that is my role. I shop online. Send the delivery address to the seller and make sure he is at the delivery address, then control the boys to collect the ordered items from him.
I don’t follow them to the robbery scene. It is only Nurudeen, alias "Onyeabo" that I know carry out the execution. I know he has a locally made short - gun. And, I am aware he had recruited other boys to join him in the robbery".
"All I do is stay in hotels. I don’t even go out at all. I am always indoor. They do the robbery, sell the phones and give me, my own share of the deal.
Nurudeen is always in hiding. He doesn’t come outside since SARS, Lagos picked up his closest friend last year. He is short in size and he sneaks into Lagos mostly at night through the creeks from Ogun State", he disclosed.
