Okolo further revealed that the suspect had been handed over to a DSS officer, who promised to transfer her to the police for further investigations and also instructed his men to remain vigilant and conduct thorough searches to apprehend criminals.
She stated, “To help myself, I lay in front of a shop along Ibori Brother Street at Oduke in Oshimili South Local Government Area of Delta State and ended up breaking into the shop through the ceiling to bring something home for the children to eat.”
“Because I was unfamiliar with the area, I was caught by the vigilante while heading to the market to sell the stolen items. This is my third time engaging in this act.”
