He was said to have been armed with cutlasses and knives during his arrest on Saturday and was believed to be preparing to attack residents.

Omotoyosi’s confession, security agents said, led to the clampdown of the others yesterday.
 

According to LNSC’s spokesman, Olawale Afolabi, the teenager confessed to being the gang leader, adding that he committed thuggery, bullying of other school children and residents.

Afolabi said the other suspects including a lady, were being interrogated by the police.
