A security guard has been arrested for stealing from the proprietress of a private school in Lagos State.

According to the Lagos State police PRO, Chike Oti, the proprietress had filed a complaint that attempts were made on four different occasions, between April and July 2018, to steal money from the school account.

She further alleged that within that period, she received four debit transaction alerts of various sums of money ranging from N900k, N800k, N150k and N600k respectively.

Through diligent investigation, one Oyekunle Abolarin, 42, a native of Omuaran, Kwara state and a security guard at the college was arrested. During interrogation, he confessed to the stealing of four different cheque leaves belonging to the school.

He thereafter called in his brother-in-law, Are Jerry Bankole, a native of Iffe Ikoyi, Kogi state, who provided the Diamond bank account used in the attempt to withdraw the various amounts.

The suspect, Abolarin told the police that he regrets his actions against his boss whom he claimed awarded scholarships to his four children. Both suspects are currently in police custody and are helping in further investigation of the case.
