Abiodun, who said he hails from Owo, in Owo local government area of Ondo State made the revelation while being paraded alongside ten other suspected criminals by the Edo State Police commissioner, Muhammed Dankwara at  headquarters of the State  Police command, Benin.

He said, “what we do is that  we  disguise as site workers going to  site, then we call   drivers to take us to the site, when we get to the site, we will collect their cars  kill  them with blocks, and sell their cars. We killed first one collected his car and I sold it to the Chinese company, the second one was a Keke Napep, we also sold it, but the last one was the one that the police arrested us. We are yet to sell the Sienna car, before we were arrested.”

“Abiodun told me that my job is to be watching to see who is coming, the first one we did, he gave me N35,000 ,the second one was N55,000 and the last one was the Sienna car, but we could not sell it before the police caught us. We killed the three persons,” he said.

The gang is made up of Williams Abiodun 39; Emmanuel Joseph 30; ,Akin Amadin ,29 and the fourth person who is  now at large.

Edo State commissioner of police, Mohammed Dankwara, while briefing the press during the parade said the Police recovered N1.2m, sophisticated arms and ammunition, while 135 suspects  were arrested since his assumption of office in Edo State.

He, however, warned criminal elements in the state to call it quits or move out of the state or else have themselves to blame.

Dankwara stated that investigation shows that with the arrest of some of them, the crime rate in the state has gone down which implies that those in custody have always been key partakers in crime.

Among recovered items were AK-47 rifles, locally-made guns, pistols, ten vehicles, 130 gas cylinders, two motorcycles and N1,200,000.
