Police Arrest Three Monkeys For Theft In Lagos


There was a mild drama at the weekend when the police at Ikotun Division, Lagos State, Southwest Nigeria, arrested three monkeys and their minders suspected to be Fulani herdsmen who were allegedly using the monkeys to breach public peace and to steal.

Police arrested the monkeys and their minders at the popular Ikotun roundabout. But the monkeys shocked the police and resisted being forced into the station. They stood at the entrance where they continued their usual demonstration and acrobatic displays. The policemen who arrested them became angry and threatened to shoot them.
The drama stirred up confusion because a large crowd gathered at the entrance of the police station to watch the moneys display. The Ikotun Police Divisional Police Officer, CSP Akika later came out of his office and
intervened. He released the moneys to their owners and dispersed the crowd at the station.
P.M.NEWS learnt through the residents that whenever the monkeys and their minders were in Ikotun, a large crowd usually gathered to watch them display. But criminals seized the opportunity to steal from the
onlookers and passers-by pickpockets usually have a field day during such displays.
Before the monkeys were arrested on Friday, a victim, Nurudeen Idowu complained to the police that
when he passed through a crowd watching the monkeys, he lost N5,700 he had on him. He said he suspected that the monkeys' minders were collaborating with criminals to steal from the people.
Another victim, Mrs. Victoria Udoh, claimed she lost N22,000 when she joined the crowd to watch the monkeys display, lamenting that she could not tell her husband how she lost the money.
A trader in Ikotun market, Edwin Chris, also claimed he was a victim. He said his N9,000 was stolen as he watched the monkeys during the week.

Teacher arrested for stuffing 19 school kids in her tiny car

A South African nursery school teacher has been caught transporting 19 children in her Renault Clio.
Melanie Minnie was stopped as she carried a class of children aged between four and six on a school trip to a shopping mall burger bar.
Police officers were shocked to discover she had six children in the small car's boot; at least three on the
front seat and the remaining ten on the car's back seat. It is unclear whether any were wearing seat belts.
A local newspaper photographer was on the scene to capture striking images of the children squashed into the tiny car.
Nico van Heerden said police had been tipped off about the safety breach by a concerned shopper at Pretoria's Jacaranda shopping mall who saw the teacher loading the children into her car.
Police stopped her a block away from the shopping centre, the photographer said, as she made the mile-long journey to the Rietfontein nursery school. Far from being uncomfortable, however, the children seemed relatively comfortable and excited by the action, Mr van Heerden claimed. He said: 'They were excited at first, but after a while they started to get a more worried and cried.'
Ms Minnie was quoted in South Africa's Afrikaans language Beeld newspaper 'this is the first time we
went on an outing – and the last time'.
According to the paper, Ms Minnie was stopped while in the process of ferrying the second of two car-loads of children back to her nursery from the mall. She told police she had already transported a first
group of 12 children in her car.
Police spokeswoman Charmaine Louwrens said the teacher was fined R1,500 (just over £100) for having
more people in a car that it was designed to carry.

Police shoot sales girl dead, injure 3 others


A 20-year old sales girl identified simply as Lucy, was on Friday was shot dead by policemen in the Apo area of Abuja, in nigeria. The girl was hit in the chest by bullets fired into a photography shop where she worked as a sales girl. Three other people sustained gunshot injuries when policemen from the FCT Police Command fired bullets indiscriminately in an attempt to enforce the demolition order of the Abuja Metropolitan Management Council.


The policemen had stormed the area around 7 am with officials of Development Control Department, who had come to demolish illegal structures. But residents and indigenes, who felt that the government had no right to demolish their houses when they were yet to be resettled, resisted the operation.
They claimed that the case was still in court and that their leaders had advised them to continue to live in the area pending the determination of the suit. As the policemen shot indiscriminately to control the residents, bullets penetrated into one of the shops and Lucy was hit in the chest. She was rushed to Garki Hospital, but she was confirmed dead on arrival. Her body has been deposited in the mortuary. Meanwhile, the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Mr. Wilson Inalegwu, met the House of Representatives representing
AMAC/Bwari constituency of the FCT, Zephaniah Jisalo, at the hospital when he visited. Inalegwu, who was in tears, assured the lawmaker that the case would be investigated. “We are not sure what took our men there or what led to the shooting, it’s still a matter for investigation,” he said. Emeka Ani, owner of the photo shop, where the deceased worked, said that his sales boy also sustained gunshot injuries during the incident. He said, “From morning, the police surrounded our area. They said they came for demolition. All of a sudden, they started shooting sporadically. They shot into my shop and killed my sales girl. My boy also sustained injuries. Lucy has been with me for about one month. Her sister brought her for me from Cross River.” The National Coordinator, Greater Gbyagi Initiative, Mr. Gimba Baiza, described the incident as wicked.
