Landlady arrested after 3 years of connecting a pipe inside her water well, to NNPC pipeline

  
Mrs Folayinka Ayinde, 59, has been arrested and detained over her alleged role in vandalising NNPC pipeline in Isheri Olofin area, Lagos State. She allegedly connected a pipe inside her water well to
NNPC pipeline and had been using it to illegally siphon petrol for the past 3 years.

This happened at her house located at KML 1, LASU Road, Iyana Odo bus stop in Isheri Olofin, and was discovered by officers of the Anti-Vandalism Intelligence Unit Team B set up by IG of Police, Solomon Arase, following a tip-off.

  
Ayinde allegedly admitted that vandals had been operating in her house for the past 3 years and she reported to the NNPC officials but they did not do anything about it. She denied involvement in the act and said she made a mistake by not informing the police because she relied on NNPC official who asked her not to worry.

She revealed that the NNPC officials used to come with a team and she did not ask to know whether they were really officers or not. She might soon be flown to Abuja for further interrogation….. n a possible political appointment….. Cc: PMNewsNigeria
