An ex-convict, Segun Ogundeji, has been arrested by men of Ogun State Police Command for impersonation.
A statement released by DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, spokesperson of the state police command, says the suspect was arrested on September 8 when he came to Sango Ota divisional headquarters fully dressed in army camouflage uniform to solicit for the release of a suspect.
”On getting to the station, he met another Air Force man, one Cpl John Temitope who accused the suspect of failure to give him official compliment, as a result of which quarrel ensued between them.
“ It was the quarrel that led the DPO Sango CSP Godwin Idehai, to interrogate them. It was during the interrogation that the police discovered that Segun Ogundeji is not a military man.
“ It was also discovered that he has once been convicted by a court of competent jurisdiction for impersonation. ”Oyeyemi’s statement read.
He added that the Commissioner of police, CP Edward Awolowo Ajogun has ordered a full investigation into the past activities of the suspect, with the view to charge him to court as soon as the investigation is concluded.
