Yesterday was a day to be remembered in the Ogolonto area of Ikorodu Lagos state as armed robbers stormed two banks carting away about N80million.
Witnesses at the scene of the robbery at the 2 banks said the incident was led by a lady.
A bank official, who narrated how the robbery took place, said the daring attitude displayed by the robbers was only comparable to “what you see when a footballer scores a decisive goal.
The banker added, “They shouted, ‘open the door, open the door’, but none of us answered them. Suddenly, we heard an explosion and the glass went down. I was wounded by broken glasses.
“One of them entered and when he saw about N20m that we had arranged to put inside our ATMs, he shouted, ‘Area, Zico see money. See money wey we dey look for.’He started dancing. He pulled a lady among us and ordered her to pack the money inside the bags they brought. After packing the money, the robbers ordered her to lead them to the strong room.
“When the lady opened the strong room, the robber that shouted in the ATM room exclaimed again, ‘Eheeeee, Area, Zico give me bags! Give me bags. Come and see money wey we dey look for. They packed everything in the strong room; more than N60m. We were expecting a bullion van to move the money before the incident happened.”
A young lady was said to have led the over one hour attacks which bore semblance of the March 12 robbery in Lekki, Lagos.
Four persons, including a teenage apprentice vulcaniser, simply identified as Rilwan, were injured by the robbers who fled through a jetty in the area.
The four are currently receiving treatment at the General hospital Ikorodu.
