The men of local security outfit in Ijebu-Ode, Obanta Safe & Secure Central Vigilante, have arrested a teenager, Tunji Adebowale, 17, who allegedly burgled a house in Imoru area of the town and stole some household items.

Parading the suspect at their office in Itoro Ijebu-Ode, the Obanta Security Commandant, Mr. Ayankoya, expressed dismay at the involvement of teenage boys and girls in crime.

“It is becoming alarming the rate at which boys and girls were being arrested for crimes recently. But I can assure you that we are up to the task, we shall ensure that we flush them out from Ijebu-Ode and its environs,” Ayankoya said.

The suspect, who said his parents live at 9, Adebowale Street, Odomola area, Epe, Lagos State, told our correspondent that he lives with his aunty in Sagamu, where he is learning carpentry.

Speaking with P.M.NEWS, the suspect said, “I was coming from Epe, where I went to see my father to inform him about my infections with gonorrhoea disease, when one of my sisters, who lives in Ijebu-Ife told me to come for treatment. I had no money to go to her place, so I decided to find a way out. When I saw everywhere was quiet, that nobody was around the house, I used a stick to break one of the ceiling and went in.”

Speaking with P.M.NEWS, one of the vigilante group members, popularly called Arewa, said the outfit had taken the boy to his father’s house in Epe to invite him, that till date, the man has not shown up.

Items recovered from the suspect include land phone and pressing iron among others.
