The Kogi State Polytechnic security operatives have arrested one Mr. Abimaje Shittu, a 25-year-old native of Egume, Dekina Local Government Area of Kogi State, for impersonating an Inspector of Police and possessing a misleading identification card.

He claimed that the said Ekele Ahiaba was a Police officer but served in Port Harcourt until his death.

The culprit further confessed that he has been using the fake ID card for months, and aimed to use it to secure easy passage from security checkpoints as a Keke NAPEP operator in Lokoja metropolis.The culprit revealed further that his coming to the institution was to transact business with one Mr. Idris Usman who he claimed owns and operates a Point of Sales outlet and makes shoes at the Student Centre.

Oredo said, “The spate of arrests are, therefore, a strong indication of the commitment of the Rector, Dr. Salisu Usman, to stamping out crimes and criminalities on campus. Dr. Usman, while commending the gallantry of the security operatives, warned cultists and those with other ulterior motives to stay away from the institution.

He also advised those who claim to be security personnel, misleading the general public with fake identifications, to desist or would have the institution’s authority to contend with.Get more stories like this on
