Three persons linked to the assault on operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) at the Lagos State of Assembly during the week have been arrested.
It was gathered that Ibrahim Olanrewaju Abdulkareem, a photographer; and two others attached to the Assembly’s Seargent at Arms, Adetu Adekunle Samsudeen and Adetola Oluwatosin Fatimoh, a lady, were tracked and arrested during the week in different parts of Lagos
It was learnt that the state lawmakers mobilised supporters to the Assembly complex, and that they attacked some DSS officers who were invited by the Assembly leadership to secure the facility.
Fears that former speaker, Mr. Mudasiru Obasa, removed from office by his colleagues, was mobilising to storm the assembly compelled the administration of the legislative body, precisely its Clerk, to ask for the presence of the DSS and other law enforcement officers.
According to security sources, the three arrested suspects have confessed to the crime and will soon be charged to court.
