Men of Kwara State Police Command have arrested four men in
connection with the alleged theft of huge sum of money from the Ilorin
residence of the Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki.
Before the commencement of Ramadan fast, there were reports
of theft of the money, said to be meant for Ramadan welfare for supporters of
the Senate President in the state.
Vanguard gathered yesterday however that the
four men were being interrogated in the office of the State Intelligence and
Investigation Bureau, SIIB, along Ahmadu Bello way, Ilorin.
According to the source, “when the camera was
reactivated, it showed faces of the suspects and how they scooped the money.
It
was as if they forgot there was CCT because they are supposed to know as
officers. But, I think by and large, It is a case of everyday for the thief,
one day is for the owner.”
Vanguard also gathered that the police are already
preparing papers to take the suspects to court for prosecution any moment from
now.
Contacted, the state Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Ajayi Okasanmi
told Vanguard that he had not been officially briefed of the arrest and
interrogation of the suspects, saying ‘’I have not been officially briefed of
the incident.”
