Operatives of Ojo Division of the Lagos State Police Command have recovered a Toyota Sienna vehicle alongside items suspected to be cannabis and other exhibits, during a routine stop-and-search operation within their jurisdiction.
On 15th August 2025, while on routine patrol, the operatives stopped an ash-coloured Toyota Sienna. In the process of demanding the driver’s identification and vehicle documents, the driver suddenly jumped out and fled with the vehicle key, abandoning the car.
A thorough search of the vehicle led to the recovery of the following items: one Army jungle hat, two ATM cards, and two bags of substances suspected to be cannabis. The recovered vehicle and exhibits have been transferred to Special Squad 2 of the Lagos State Police Command, Ikeja, for further investigation.
The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Olohundare Jimoh, commended the vigilance of the Ojo Division operatives and assures the public that efforts are ongoing to trace and apprehend the fleeing suspect. He reiterates the Command’s resolve to intensify patrols and intelligence-led policing across Lagos, urging residents to remain law-abiding and promptly report suspicious activities to the Police.
