LAGOS JUNE 27TH (URHOBOTODAY)- ‘One Chance’ bus robbery suspect, 24 years old Adeleke Rasaq has disclosed that commercial bus robbers living in Ajegunle, Lagos state live luxurious life that is better than of many Chief Executives of corporate organizations .
The suspect who was arrested by the operatives of the Rapid Response Squad of the Lagos State Police Command yesterday explained that he resigned from the company he worked for when he noticed that a lot of his friends living Ajegunle, who were doing the ‘one chance’ bus hustling were living better than a lot of Chief Executives.
“Every guy does this in Ajegunle. We don’t see it as a crime. It is called hustling. I started following them out. It was in the process that I mastered the act. It has been up to six years that I have been in this trade,” he revealed.
He confessed that the ‘one chance, bus robbery business is not as lucrative presently as it were years ago because of the present economic hardship in the country.
“We don’t make much money like before. The present economic condition in the country has greatly affected one chance business. We have not been able to make much money, everywhere is dry. Frankly, we have not made much money since Monday. We have been sharing N20, 000, N30, 000 and N40, 000. Unlike before, when I operate alone, I could make close to N150, 000 daily. Now, business is so difficult,” the suspect stated.
