Operatives at the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, Lagos, are currently investigating two robbers, allegedly invited by a housemaid to rob her boss (names withheld) in Magodo Estate, Lagos State Vanguard reports.

Just a few days after employment, the housemaid simply identified as Mary, conspired with the gang of robbers which included her 22-year-old boyfriend, Ikong Daniel and a commercial motocycle rider, popularly called “Okada”, Pius Dennis, 20.
The suspects were nabbed by the police operatives during their escaped bid after Mary disappeared with the stolen items.
“Dennis got involved because I invited him. I told him that when he closed from work he should come to my house, because it had been over a year since we saw each other.
“After he closed, we went to my house in Ikorodu. When we got home, my girlfriend, Mary, called me on phone that I should come to where she was working at Magodo.
“I did not have money.
“It was Dennis that loaned me money for transportation from Ikorodu to Magodo. When we got there, she opened the gate and took us inside.
“When we got there, she said we should come inside that we have an assignment to carry out. She took us inside to her madam’s bedroom and asked us to hold the woman that there was money in the house.I do not know the exact amount or the worth the jewelleries she collected.It was Mary that also brought the knife we used to frighten the woman during the operation. I assisted her to hold the woman, while she parked her valuables.Mary, who is also from Cross River State, was able to escape with the proceeds from the operation.She promised to share with us whatsoever we made from the operation.”
Adding to the narration, Dennis, said, “We were almost out of the estate when operatives of Oodua Peoples Congress, OPC, apprehended us and brought us to Special Anti Robbery Squad, SARS.It was Daniel that held the madam down, while his girlfriend packed the jewellery, money and other valuables.The mistake I made was not leaving when I realized that his girlfriend had invited us to rob her boss.”
