On Monday Sept 24, 2012, security officials arrested a fake deputy commissioner of police in Ogun State Governor’s office in Oke Mosan, Abeokuta.
The fake police officer identified as Mr T.A Banjo at the time of his arrest was found in possession of charms.
He was nabbed while himself and 2 other people were trying to find their way to the office of the Secretary to the State Government, Mr.Taiwo Adeoluwa located within the same premises.
Suspicious of the way the suspects were moving within the
Governor’s Office Complex, vigilant security operatives had promptly arrested
them.
When interrogated by security operatives, Banjo reportedly
claimed that three of them were on a visit to the governor’s office to see the
Secretary to the State Government, Adeoluwa.
When searched, items including a police officer’s Identity
Card with the rank of Deputy Commissioner, a National Identity Card , handsets
and objects suspected to be charms were found on the three suspects.
The arrest of the three suspects caused confusion among
workers in the SSG office who became apprehensive following the news that a
fake policeman who claimed to be on a visit to their boss had been arrested and
found to be in possession of charms.
Confirming the arrest, the state Police Public Relations
Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi said the suspects were in custody of the police at the
Command Headquarters, Eleweran.
Adejobi, an assistant superintendent of police said, The
incident was a clear case of impersonation. He has the I D card of the rank of
deputy Commissioner. It is impersonation,we are taking over the case. He must
have used it to perpetrate some evils. We cannot condone this evil.”
