The Ondo state Police Command on Thursday paraded a forty three-year-old man, Francis Oladapo, who was arrested for allegedly issuing fake number plates to some motorists and motorcyclists inside the state.
The command’s spokesman, Mr Femi Joseph, stated that the suspect accrued over N4,000 from each of his sufferers even as carrying out his illegal activities. Joseph stated that detectives from the command swung into action by arresting Oladapo when they had obtained information concerning his illegal act from the members of the public.
“It was unfortunate that on sighting the police, the suspect’s accomplices escaped arrest. “This illegal act no doubt must have depleted the revenues that ought to have accrued to the state government revenues,’’ the spokesman stated. Joseph, however, counseled the members of public to only sign up their cars and bikes on the state Board of internal revenue or at the office of Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC). The suspect informed newsmen that he was brought to the unlawful enterprise years ago via a gang member now at large. He said that he was not aware that his accomplices had been engaged in criminal activity.
