31-year-old Kabiru Mohammed,
has confessed and opened up
how he hired a seven-man
robbery gang to steal $383,000
(N61,280,000) from his own
father in Lagos. Below are his
confession:
“My father is a bureau de
change operator at the
airport. I am the one who
arranged a seven-man
armed robbery gang led by
Godogodo to rob my older
brother, Ibrahim who was
carrying my father’s money
amounting to $383,000.
“I told the gang that my
father had dollars. The first
operation was when Ibrahim
wanted to convey money
from local airport to
international airport, I called
Godogodo and gave him the
car number plate and the
colour of the car. I told
them not to kill my brother,
but to shoot into the air. I
knew my brother would
release the money because
my father told us not to
drag money with armed
robbers. They collected
$350,000 and gave me only
two bundles which is
$20,000.
“In the second operation
they stopped my brother in
front of Air Force Bus Stop
and collected $33,000 and
they gave me $8,000.”
The suspect, who is now in SARS
custody, also confessed to be
part of the deadly Godogodo
gang.
“I am a member of the robbery
gang. My role is to find targets
and also information which I
give to the gang. That is why
they call me ‘Target man’.”
Another suspect, Okechukwu
Lawrence, who was arrested
alongside Mohammed,
confessed that he was the one
handling the weapons for the
gang.
The indigene of Imo State said,
“My work is to keep ammunition
for the gang after collecting
AK47 rifles from the policemen
the gang shot dead. I joined the
gang to get enough money to
boost my spare parts business
in Ladipo market.”
The dangerous Godogodo has
also owned up to the crime.
Police Public Relations Officer,
Ngozi Braide, told Punch that the
suspects would soon be charged
to court.
