The Kogi State Polytechnic security operatives have arrested one Mr.
Abimaje Shittu, a 25-year old native of Egume, Dekina Local Government
Area of Kogi State for impersonating an Inspector of Police and
possessing a misleading identification card.
Shittu was apprehended by the security personnel of the Polytechnic on
Saturday 15th October, 2022 while trying to make his way to the
Polytechnic Main Campus in Lokoja .
Shittu who claimed to be a National Diploma (ND) graduate of Accountancy
with Matriculation Number 2016/ND/ACCT/188 revealed that the fake
identification card number “219264” with the name Abdullahi Saduki in
his possession was given to him by his late brother, Ekele Ahiaba, a
native of Anyigba, Dekina Local Government Area.
He claimed that the said Ekele Ahiaba was a Police officer but served in
Porthacourt until his death.
The culprit further confessed that he has been using the fake ID card
for months, and aimed to use it to secure easy passage from security
checkpoints as a Keke NAPEP operator in Lokoja metropolis.
He also confessed that he was using it to escape public harrasment.
The culprit revealed further that his coming to the institution was to
transact business with one Mr. Idris Usman who he claimed owns and
operates a POS outlet and makes shoes at the Students’ Centre.
Mr. Abimaje Shittu has been handed over to the appropriate security
agency for onward investigation.
The arrest of Mr Shittu adds to recent chains of blow handed criminals
who make their ways into the Polytechnic, ostensibly to commit crimes.
The spate of arrests are therefore, a strong indication of the
commitment of the Rector, Dr. Salisu Ogbo Usman, to stamping out crimes
and criminalities on campus.
Dr. Usman, while commending the gallantry of the security operatives
warned cultists and those with other ulterior motives to stay away from
the Institution.
