It was a narrow escape for my friend when this robbery happened,she
was just descending from Ikoyi bridge when loud guns invaded the air,it was
sheer grace of God she escaped from being hurt.
FCMB was attacked by armed robbers on Thursday right on
Lekki phase 1 Admiralty way killing 6people including a fish seller.That was
her version of the attack
According to Vanguard 12 (or more) men dressed in military fatigue wielding AK47 automatic rifles brought terror to Lekki Phase 1 on Thursday March 12th. They robbed 1 (or 2) banks on Admiralty way and killed 6 (or 7) people. No person in the bank (s) were killed because they cooperated with the robbers. The robbers made away with money in the vaults and even broke the ATM and took all the money there.
The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mr Kayode Aderanti, weekend, said that the command had clue of who the robbers that stormed a second generation bank last Thursday, killing three policemen and a teenager, were, assuring that it would soon round them up.
Investigation as gathered had begun by joint crack detectives from the Special Anti Robbery Squad, SARS and those from the newly instituted Tactical Operation Unit. The operatives as gathered would also spread their dragnet to neighbouring Benin Republic where the fleeing armed men were suspected to have taken refuge. Impeccable police sources hinted that part of the on going investigation included the monitoring of the video footage of the robbery operation recorded by an onlooker. 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 told Vanguard; ‘’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.’’
