The faces of the Ikorodu Bank robbers have been unveiled by the Lagos state police command.
It would be recalled that the gang of armed robbers who attacked the banks in Ikorodu last week Wednesday were caught by men of the Nigerian police.
The arrest came after soldiers on duty in Ondo state arrested one of the members of the group who was travelling to spend his own part of the money carted away.
The soldiers who were on a stop and search duty arrested the suspect who was on his way to his home town in Okitikpupa, Ondo state.
During the stop and search exercise, the suspect was carrying in his bag, bundles of new N1000 notes with bank wrappers. Alerted of the robbery incident in Lagos, the soldiers detained him and alerted the Lagos state police command.
Shortly after that, news broke out that the gang of robbers have been arrested by the Lagos state police command.
Confirming the report, the police command today, July 6, paraded the robbers at the Lagos state police command, Ikeja.
