This Robbery Gang
Leader Is Deadlier Than Shina Rambo…
The
Police High Command have disclosed that South-West robbery czar, Abiodun
Ogunjobi [Gododogo] who was nabbed last week after a massive manhunt that
lasted for about 14 years is a bigger threat than the famed Shina Rambo to
Nigeria.
“We did not make it
public because of the need not to frighten the people. But any top police
officer will tell you that he was bigger that Shina Rambo. Was it the number of
policemen he killed [or] the businesses he raided? He was the top man!"
How
Godogodo held parts of Nigeria to ransom for 14 years...
His
notoriety is such that some governors have called the police high command to
bring the underworld king to them so that they can re-assure their people that
Godogodo has indeed been arrested.
Six
police commands including Lagos are currently clamouring to interrogate the
suspect who has terrorized the region for over 14 years, killing more than 50
policemen and many other civilians.
Police
sources told Vanguard that Commissioners of Police from these states who have
lost policemen and rifles to this deadly robber were seeking to have him
paraded in their states to restore public confidence in the police.
A
police source disclosed that activities in one of the banks raided by Godogodo
and his gang last year, leading to the death of unspecific number of people are
yet to resume.
“They
all want to have a time with the notorious armed robber. They are all victims
of his escapade and they all want to interrogate him to know how he coordinated
some of these operations.”
Fashola orders
intensive treatment of suspect
Meanwhile,
Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State has ordered an intensive treatment of
the suspect who was injured from bullet fired at him during his arrest in
Egbeda area of Ibadan, Oyo State.
Sources
said Godogodo was rushed to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital on
Thursday. He was bleeding from injuries he sustained during his arrest.
Godogodo bigger than
Shina Rambo —Police
Explaining
how big he was in the underworld, a top police officer said he was bigger than
Shina Rambo, who shot to public consciousness with his daring raids that led to
the death of scores of policemen and civilians in the 90s.
According
to the source,
“He
became prominent because of his access to arms. They operate in syndicates. For
instance, in the Ajah zone, there was Saheed who looked out for targets. In
this same zone, there was Omoba who had a six-man gang. When they identify a
target and feel that it’s huge, they would invite Godogodo who would storm the
place with his superior arsenal. They operated like that in every part of the
region.
“However,
before he was caught we had depleted his men. Some of them like AY, Seye, Omoba
and Saheed had been arrested. We killed people like AY and Paul.
Sorcery and charms
“These
people believe in sorcery and charms. They are usually emboldened by their
charms. Initially, we assumed they lived outside the country but gradually we
started putting some of the evidence together which led to their arrest.
“What
also struck us was that they operated on weekends. We still don’t know why.
These guys were deadly.”
Asked
why they have decided to take him to some South-West states, the police top
shot said he doubted if he would be alive for such parade.
He
said: “Godogodo was in pretty bad shape when I saw him. I don’t think he will
be alive for such exercise except the doctors perform a miracle.”
