The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Benjamin Hundeyin, said that two suspects, Adamaka Chinyere and Bolajoko Haruna have been arrested for an attempt to abduct a secondary schoolgirl in the Ikotun area of the metropolis.
The police spokesman, who took to his XSpace to reveal this incident, said that the suspects had already lured the girl into their tinted Toyota Camry car before they were noticed and the alarm raised.
According to Hundeyin, people in the community noticed the fugitive movement of the unfamiliar faces in the community and became alert.
This was even as he urged parents to teach their children to desist from following strangers.
Hundeyin said: “Let’s teach our children not to follow strangers! Ikotun Police Division received information from community members about the presence of strange people moving around their neighbourhood suspiciously.
“The police moved in discreetly, quickly enough to rescue a female secondary school student they had tricked into their car and abducted.
“The suspects, Adamaka Chinyere and Bolajoko Haruna have been arrested and their tinted Toyota Camry impounded. They are to be arraigned after the investigation. Meanwhile, the student has been reunited with her family.”
