Determined to
become a millionaire at all cost, an Information Communication Technology
Consultant, Emmanuel Anthony 25, organized men to rob his Indian client of
computer software at the Gbagada Area of Lagos State.
The suspect told
detectives that it was easy for him to infiltrate the victim’s home because he
had visited there several times and knew all the nooks and crannies of the
building. He said that because he didn’t want the Indian to recognize him, he
wore a face mask.
The Lagos State
Commissioner of Police, Mr. Fatai Owoseni: “Anthony and two of his friends
scaled the fence and rob their victim, one Aneesh, an expatriate with
toy gun. They tied his hands and legs to the gate with a rope and then
dispossessed him of his money, Phones, Ipad, laptop and others valuables.
Policemen from Anthony Police Station received the information about the
operation and raced to the scene. Anthony was arrested just as he was trying to
escape through the fence. His two friends escaped.”
Recounting the
robbery, Anthony said: “On that fateful day, my friends and I scaled the fence
of the house. I wore a face mask so that my client wouldn’t recognize me. I
pointed the gun at him and tied him to the gate. We then ran away with his
laptop and some other valuables.”
Anthony
continued: “We were trying to escape when we suddenly heard police siren. My
two friends escaped. Till now, I still don’t know the power or forces that
overcame me. I just discovered that I dropped the man’s laptop on the ground
and couldn’t move. That was how I was arrested.”
He explained
further: “My purpose of going for the robbery was to steal Accounting
software in his laptop. My plan was to extract the serial number of the
software and duplicate it for sell. If duplicate it, I’ll make about a lot of
money from it. The software is difficult to get in Nigeria Market.”
Owoseni said that
the suspects would soon be charged to court. He also revealed that the fleeing
suspects were already being tracked.
