The Ogun State Police Command has arrested two armed robbers on their way to an operation on the Awa-Ijebu/Ijebu-Ode Expressway.

Oyeyemi said they were apprehended on the expressway last week by a team led by the Divisional Police Officer, Awa-Ijebu, CSP Adewalehinmi Joseph, during a routine patrol of the area.

Oyeyemi said the arrested suspect informed the police on interrogation that he was invited by his fleeing partner from Ijebu-Ode for a robbery operation.
