He further said that others: Samuel Micheal (25), Adebayo Lateef (29), Opeyemi Adelusi (24), Daramola Ariyo (26) and Wasiu Ariyo (29), were arrested in the Omisanjana axis of Ado-Ekiti “in possession of illicit drugs, suspected to be cannabis sativa in large quantities, phones and cybercrime materials. They have been terrorising that area with reports from landlords to the unit showing that they are of questionable character. Other suspected illicit drugs were also recovered from them.
“Ayodele Ayomide (20) and Oladapo Agbe were arrested in the Oke Ila area in Ado-Ekiti after they had successfully broken into a church and stole a heavy duty generator.
