The police said the husband Yunusa’s arrest followed a report of a stolen gold Toyota Corolla cad (Reg No. ABC 570 FJ) from the Federal Secretariat in Abuja on April 19, 2025.

FCT Police spokesperson, SP Josephine Adeh, said police investigation subsequently led to the arrest of his wife, Blessing, on April 25 in Kwali Area Council.

“She confessed to purchasing Toyota master keys from the Jumia online marketplace, which her husband used to steal vehicles, while she created distractions to facilitate the crimes,” SP Adeh stated.

The police further said on April 28, 2025, their operatives responded to a report from a car buyer in Life Camp regarding a suspicious black Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC E-400 (Reg No. AAA 07 KA).

Upon investigation, it was confirmed stolen from Lekki, Lagos State. Five suspects were arrested and identified as Idris Suleiman, Isiyaku Habibu, Ganiyu Sadiq, Idowu Akintunde, and Bello Muyideen. The stolen vehicle was recovered and the suspects confessed to stealing it from their employer.

Similarly, following a report from Mr Chinwenze Chinaza that his driver, one George Idung, had gone missing alongside his unregistered Toyota Hilux Adventure, Police operatives from Mabushi Division acting on credible intelligence, swung into action, tracked the said driver to his village in Eket LGA, Akwa Ibom State, where he was arrested while attempting to sell off the vehicle.

The Police spokesperson said Idung was in custody and the vehicle had been recovered.

The police added that all eight suspects were in police custody and will be charged to court upon the conclusion of investigations.
