Police in Oyo State yesterday paraded one Francise Kadibuwa, a Beninoise, for being the mastermind of the robbery attack on the Bodija, Ibadan residence of the immediate past governor of the state, Otunba Adebayo Alao- Akala, penultimate week.
Parading the suspect identified as the cleaner of Alao-Akala’s house at the police headquarters, Eleyele, Ibadan, the state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Muhammed Indabawa, said the command received a complaint from the former governor’s wife, Mrs. Oluwakemi Alao-Akala, that unknown persons broke into her apartment, ransacked everywhere and made away with some of her valuables like jewellery and money.
According to the commissioner, a team of crack detectives from the Special Anti-Robbery Squad was detailed to go into the case and unravel the identity of the criminals after which Kadibuwa confessed to be the culprit.
Indabawa said the cleaner, in his confession, absolved other workers in the house of involvement in the burglary, claiming that he single-handedly planned and executed the burglary by buying the house breaking implements like hammer, sawblade, two chisels and nail removers a week before the incident.
The commissioner added that Kadibuwa carried out the robbery operation between 1am and 3am on May 5, when all the occupants of the house had travelled to Ogbomoso.
