Adegoke said this on Wednesday at the command headquarters in Ikeja, while parading 34 offenders arrested for various offences across the state.

Adegoke said, “On January 13, 2024, around 3pm, based on credible intelligence that some boys were seen making occultic practices around Agufoye area of Ikorodu, operatives of the command swiftly arrested one Ifeanyi Nwodo, 39, and Daniel Johnson, 32.”
