Police nab Abuja big boy who stole all appliances, fittings in shortlet apartment he lodged in with his girlfriend
The Federal Capital Territory command of the Nigerian police has announced the arrest of a man who allegedly carted away all the appliances and fittings in a short-let apartment he lodged in with his girlfriend.
A Twitter user @Estakinleye took to the platform over the weekend to raise an alarm about the alleged theft.
She wrote:”Good evening, I have a short-let (Gwagwalada, Abuja) business that I run and (it) just started about 2 months ago. The last client that came to stay in the apartment, firstly, he paid for 1 week with his girlfriend and later extended with 2 weeks making 3 weeks in total. His rent expired today Saturday 20th August and by the time we got to the apartment we realised that all the loads in the apartment are GONE (pictures are above before and after pics).
The only thing he left was broom. Some of the things he carried are my solar kits which contain Television, DStv kits including plate, 3 different solar panels he went on top of the root and removed all, fan, bed, bed frame, plate, curtains, spoons, water reserve e.t.c.
We just started this business. The phone number he dropped for his next of kin is not going through likewise his phone numbers, we have been to the police station to report the case but they said they will track his number (when his number starts going through) which I don’t know if the number will ever go through.
We were able to get 2 of his pictures which is attached, doing our conversion when he just came he said he lives in Kubwa, Abuja. The girlfriend came from Benin. Kindly help us post, anyone that can help us locate him or his family member.”
Giving an update on Twitter, the FCT police say the suspect has been arrested and an investigation into the matter has commenced.
”While expecting the complainant to reach out to the Police. We wish to intimate members of the public on the arrest of the suspect. Investigation has commenced and the input of the complainant is needed to lend credence to the process.”
