It was gathered that the two officers, Sergeant Ogunbiyi Agbabu and Inspector Eheziekia Abiona, recovered the money which fell of the van when it sped past the agency’s headquarters at Alausa.

Olayinka therefore, implored the Police and Lagos State Government to commend the officers for their honesty and integrity.

The chairman however, requested that the owner of any bullion van that drove through the Lagos State House of Assembly Complex between November to December 2015 with missing N5 million should come forward with cogent proof of ownership.
