BREAKING NEWS: Ogun Robbery, police recover 16 vehicles; arrest 8 armed robbers in 2 days

The command in a statement issued by its public relations officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, in Abeokuta said the feat was recorded when its State CID anti-robbery team and Anti-crime men attached to Ibafo Division of the command, uncovered the hideouts of armed robbers and recovered the stolen cars with assorted arms and ammunition.
He said the recovered vehicles were stolen from various parts of the country and the recoveries are as a result of robust intelligence gathering of the command.
