Men of the Osun State Police Command have arrested two area boys after forcing a student, Yusuf Joseph, to transfer N150,000 to their bank account.
The victim claimed the N150,000 was part of his school fees.
Parading the suspects, Sodeeq Adegoke (24) and Abubakar Ajibola (24), at the Osun Police Command headquarters in Osogbo, on Monday, they confessed to committing the crime last Friday morning.
Sodeeq, who spoke with journalists, said: “We stopped his motorcycle and jumped on it, forced him to a deserted area in the GRA, where we forced him to transfer N150,000 into Ajibola’s account number. We already spent N85,000 on the money.
“We forced him to unlock his phone where we discovered he had money in and coerced him to transfer the money.”
But Abubakar said he was not part of the attack but confessed that the N150,000 was actually transferred to his bank account.
