29-year-old Raji Saheed who was paraded at Eleweran Police Station, Abeokuta Ogun State for allegedly stealing motorcycles, Saheed opened up to Punch ,saying though he steals motorcycles, he is not an armed robber.
“I started stealing okadas since 2011, and it was as a result of mixing up with bad friends that I got into the business. It was not my intention to steal.I was an apprentice vulcaniser, but when my master died, I was confused and I didn’t know what else to do.
That was when I met this friend who taught me how to steal okada. I do not know where my friend is right now, but in 2012, I heard he had been arrested and was remanded in Kirikiri prison.”
