How We Convert Stolen Goods To Ours — Couple Narrates
A 33-year-old mother of twins, Ngozi Kenneth, has narrated how she and her husband, Adewale Olokungboye, 29, dubiously convert stolen goods to that of their family.
Ngozi was arrested with the husband, Adewale, by the operatives of the Ondo state security outfit codenamed Amotekun, for their alleged involvement in a series of shop break-ins and thefts of goods worth millions of naira in the state capital.
According to their statement, they were paraded alongside 31 other suspected criminals terrorising the people of the state.
In an interview, Ngozi narrated how other accomplices, break-in into shops and she would do fake affidavits to dubiously convert the stolen property to that of her family.
According to her, l don’t participate in the break-in. I only wait till the end of the operation to receive the goods after which I do a fake affidavit to change their ownership to ours.
“I was not the one who broke into the shop. I only went with Daniel.
After breaking into the shop, Daniel came to meet me with the goods where I was waiting for him. Yes, I used to do affidavits for the stolen goods .”
” Once the goods are stolen, we do the fake affidavit to show that we’re the rightful owners of the stolen goods.
On his part, the husband, denied prior knowledge of his wife’s involvement until the security operatives stormed the residents where the stolen goods were kept.
Adewale said “My wife was the one that went to break into the shop. She went with Seun and Daniel in the middle of the night.
” It was raining heavily that night. It was when I woke up that I saw the goods that they went to steal.
“I did not bother to ask her where she got the goods from because I had to rush to work that morning.
It was when Amotekun officers came to the house to arrest them that I realised that they had gone to steal the goods. She is the one who perfected the affidavit to make the goods legally hers.
“My wife and I have been arrested in the past by SWAT in the state for stealing.
” But after that, I left her in Akure and went to Ado-Ekiti. This time around, I decided to come and check on the twins she had for me; that was how I was arrested with her.
The state commander of Amotekun, Chief Adetunji Adeleye, said, “Immediately after stealing the goods, they will go and do a fake affidavit as the owners of any property they steal.”
Adeleye said that 31 other suspected criminals were arrested in various parts of the state.
