A traffic robber simply known as Ali was taken into custody by the Lagos State Police Command on Tuesday at Ikate in the Lekki region of the state.

This was revealed in a statement released on Wednesday, November 15, by SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the Command's public relations officer.

The statement read, “A notorious traffic robber, one Ali ‘m’, has been arrested in the Ikate area of Lekki, Lagos State.

“The suspect was arrested while carrying out his nefarious activities on Tuesday, November 14, through the combined efforts of residents and the police.”

Preliminary investigations, according to Hundeyin, showed that the suspect terrorised unsuspecting motorists on the Lekki-Epe Motorway by dressing as a beggar and robbing them of their cash and valuables under threat of violence.

The statement stated that the suspect will be arraigned following the investigation's conclusion.
