Operatives of Osun Amotekun corps have arrested a 41-year-old man, identified as Temitope Olojede, for allegedly r%bbing a church in Osogbo, the state’s capital.
Olojede was arrested on Thursday after operatives received a distress call from residents that he had r%bbed a church in Ogo-Oluwa.
The Osun Amotekun Corps Commander, Brigadier General Bashir Adewinmbi, in a statement on Saturday, February 11, described the suspect as a known culprit who has been t£rrifying the residents of Ogo-Oluwa Area, Osogbo.
“Our men received a distress call from one of the residents of Ogo-Oluwa that a church was burgled and they needed the attention of the operatives urgently to arrest the felon; they swung into action immediately and he was arrested after trying to circumvent the scene.
During investigation, he confessed to being in the act for a very long time and that he has been st£aling from the area and its environs,” Adewinmbi said.
