The Lagos State Police Command have arrested Adenuga Tosin,  Jesutofunmi  Ezekiel and Adeniji Juwon, suspected cultists found in possession of a firearm and ammunition.

The arrest and recovery followed a credible tip-off, which led to a well-coordinated, intelligence-led operation along the Owode-Ikorodu axis by one of the Command’s tactical teams.

CSP  Benjamin Hundeyin, Public Relations Officer Lagos State Command, in a statement released today said during  the operation, the suspects were found in possession of a locally made pistol and six live cartridges. Investigations revealed that they are active members of a cult group known for its involvement in violent crimes.

Further investigation showed that the suspects played key roles in facilitating the movement and distribution of illegal firearms across various parts of Lagos State, posing a serious threat to public safety.
Efforts are ongoing to apprehend other wanted members of the group. Upon the conclusion of the investigation, the arrested suspects will be charged to court in accordance with due process and the rule of law.

The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Olohundare Jimoh reaffirms the Command’s zero-tolerance stance on cultism and criminality. He urges residents to support the police with timely information, as the Command remains committed to maintaining peace across Lagos state.
