The police inspector identified only as Joseph and who was attached to the Railway Police Command, Ebute-Meta, has been detained. He was detained for allegedly stealing bunches of plantain.
According to reporters, the suspect was arrested on Tuesday while trying to hide the plantain in two trucks.

“The inspector is attached to the Railway Police Command. On Tuesday around 12pm, he went to the commissioner’s lodge and harvested plantains without any authority. As if that was not bad enough, he brought two trucks into the command to take the plantain away. He wanted to cover up the plantains with some iron sheets so that he could take them through the gate without being detected.
“He was on this when some workers at the Railway Command called the attention of the authorities to it and he was arrested.”
