According to the police, five suspects were arrested at their makeshift office located at Jobi Gele way, Alausa, Ikeja, following a tip-off. Benjamin Hundeyin, Lagos police spokesperson, in a statement on Thursday, identified the suspects as Gloria Ukaegbu, aged 28; 30 year-old Omolere Kayode, Taiwo Ajayi, aged 34; 27-year-old Nwachukwu Brenda, and Oluwatomisin Adebisi, aged 25.“Led by the Commander RRS, CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi, the operatives recovered several forged CAC documents, a Toyota Sienna and a Toyota Matrix used as makeshift offices for their nefarious transactions,” the statement reads.
