Police nab driver who stole employer’s vehicle and gave fake testimony in church

Amos Daniel, 36, has been detained by the Lagos State Police Command. On the day he was engaged as a driver, he stole his employer’s car.

Daniel acknowledged that he had driven the car to his church in order to share the story of God’s tremendous providence. In a similar case, two ex-soldiers, Abdulau Mohammed and Akeem Suleiman, along with two accomplices who were civilians, were paraded with other suspects due to their involvement in a robbery gang.

According to reports, the gang operated while donning military headgear.

From the discharged soldiers, the police retrieved military headgear, uniforms, and identity cards. Thankgod Kesh-David, a 25-year-old suspect who pretended to be a roadside technician to fix broken-down cars before vanishing with them, was also paraded by the police.

The command’s spokesman, SP Benjamin Hudenyin, briefed reporters at the command headquarters in Ikeja on Tuesday. “We have successfully arrested a robbery gang through our tactical team based in Surulere,” he said. The four-person gang’s specialty was robbing drivers of their cars in Lagos at gunpoint.

They have been operating for quite a long time. Two of them are dismissed soldiers, one was dismissed in 2014 and the other in 2017. They carried out their crime wearing full military gear.

“We also have somebody who was employed as a driver. Unfortunately, the employer did not do due diligence. The same day he resumed as a driver, he ran away with the car and could not be traced.

“Interestingly, he dedicated the car in church the following Sunday, testifying of what God had done to him.”

“I stole my madam’s Lexus car and took it to the church to testify that God has blessed me,” Daniel, the accused driver, told reporters. I was going to utilize it for Uber and pay off my debt with the money I made. On June 23, 2024, my first day of work, I stole the car, and on June 30, 2024, I drove it to church.

One of the dismissed soldiers, Suleiman, told reporters, “I started robbery in April 2024.” Suleiman claimed he was expelled from the Nigerian Army in 2017 due to desertion. I always drive the automobile to the recipient’s house after we steal one. We rob cars at random. We pull everyone who is parked and unconscious and quickly drive off. We use a local gun and operate in the Ajah neighborhood of Lagos. However, we never murdered our victims.

The command spokesman counseled businesses to perform background checks at the forensic unit and the Force Criminal Investigation Department, Alagbon, and the Central Criminal Registry before employing drivers or domestic help.

The suspects will face legal charges for their offenses, he continued.
