Operatives of Rapid Response Squad (RRS) have arrested 5 suspects in connection with a pump action gun, a locally made revolver and 21 live cartridges just as it deploys Security Strategy for the festive period.
The suspects:

Basit Adams (17) and Ayinde Abibat (20), were heading to Langbasa after a rendezvous at Alpha Beach, Lekki.
The suspects were arrested in the early hours of Saturday, when operatives of Rapid Response Squad (RRS) acting on credible intelligence intercepted a TOYOTA 2018 model, with a customized number plate ‘TEPAOJE’ in Ajah, Lekki, Lagos.
The officers after interrogating the suspects thereafter searched and recovered a pump action gun, a locally made revolver and 21 live cartridge from their vehicle.
