The Ogun State Police Command on Friday announced the arrest of four suspects for impersonation, forgery, and acts likely to cause a breach of the peace around the Sabo Under-Bridge area of Sagamu.
The command’s spokesperson, CSP Omolola Odutola, disclosed this in a statement made available to journalists on Friday.
Odutola said that on November 20, 2025, at about 08:00 hours, the Divisional Police Officer, Sakura Division, received a distress call reporting that a group of individuals were extorting members of the public using fake ACOMORAN revenue tickets.
She identified the suspects as 50-year-old Inidana Muhammad, 40-year-old Ali-Asan Makun Muhammad, 30-year-old Ahmed Isa, and 23-year-old Saliu Isa, who were allegedly found in possession of forged receipts used to fraudulently collect revenue from motorcycle operators and traders.
Further investigation revealed that the fake tickets were supplied by one Yinusa, surname unknown, a resident of Sabo who is currently at large.
The suspects are to be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for detailed investigation and possible prosecution.
Commenting on the development, the Commissioner of Police, CP Lanre Ogunlowo, issued a stern warning to urchins and disgruntled elements who disrupt the lawful activities of commercial motorcycle operators, stressing that illegal union activities would no longer be tolerated and would henceforth attract decisive police action.
The command reiterated its stance against impersonation, forgery, extortion, and all acts capable of disturbing public peace, adding that it remained committed to ensuring a safe and law-abiding environment for residents.
