The Osun State Police Command has charged armed robbery suspect Olabode Owoeye, also known as Bode Itaapa, to court.
In a statement issued on Wednesday by the command’s spokesperson, Yemisi Opalola, Commissioner of Police Mohammed Umar Abba announced that Owoeye, 32, faces five charges, including conspiracy, armed robbery, unlawful possession of firearms, and murder.
The case, with charge number FHC/ABJ/CR/323/2024, is being heard at the Federal High Court in Abuja.

Commissioner Abba reassured Osun State residents of the police’s commitment to their safety and the relentless pursuit of criminals to ensure the state’s security.
