Lekki bank robbery: Police claim to know the robbers.

The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Kayode Aderanti, has revealed that they have a lead on the robbers that stormed a bank in Lekki last Thursday.

The police added that their investigations will spread to neighboring country Benin republic where the armed men were suspected to have gone hiding.
The robbers during a gun battle with police officers, killed three policemen and a teenager.Aderanti who was at the scene of the robbery incident, described the death of his men as unfortunate, adding that they (policemen ) were not even attached to the bank where the gunmen stormed but acted gallantly to prevent the hoodlums from carrying out their devilish act.
Also reacting to  the development, Force Public Relations Officer, Ag. Commissioner of Police, Emmanuel Ojukwu.
‘’It’s a terrible development. We will see to the end of it. We must get them. You should know that for a long time we have not had that kind of bank robbery in Lagos State. That is why the Inspector-General of Police, Suleiman Abbah, has given the command matching orders to re-strategise in order to ensure that it does not occur again.’’
“The command is alert to its responsibility. It was because of the anticipation of all this that the CP formed a tactical operation unit to interface with the banks. We held meetings with the banks and we have been having some collaboration with them.
We anticipated that since banks are moving to this corridor, definitely hoodlums will want to torment and because we acted proactive measures that is why we have been able to keep it within this barest minimum.”
