According to police, Tanko was arrested in Abuja after a member of the robbery gang that supplies him with stolen cars was arrested in Rivers state and confessed. Tanko was paraded alongside four others identified as Musa Yusuf, 27, Israel Nana, 30, Moses Andrel, 25 and Abayomi Adebayo, 53.
According to PM News, when
interrogated, Tanko said he was aware the young men supplied him with
stolen cars but buys them because they are cheap and helped him
to maximize his profit. He said he was not a robber for purchasing from
the thieves.
Adebayo, one of the gang member who was arrested in Ayobo, Lagos was responsible for forging and changing chasis numbers of vehicles while Anrel who is a Liberian and a driver with UACN was arrested in Oyo state and confessed to selling four stolen cars. Another member of the gang, Nana was arrested in Rivers state and confessed to selling two stolen cars.
The Lagos state Police commissioner, CP Aderanti said they were able to apprehend the robbers through intensive surveillance, aggressive patrol and cutting edge technology. He said 16 cars including a Toyota Camry, Nissan, Sienna, Outlander Jeeps, Toyota Sienna, SUVs among others were recovered from the men.

No matter what he thinks, he is a facilitator, the robbers obviously stole the cars 'cause they had an outlet to sell em off quick! He is as culpable as the robbers! Nigerians are all about the good life, quick to blame corrupt leaders, but what about us?!

Thank you for this.Because so many of them are still hiding over there. So if you are such one better decease from it...OR you may be the next.....
Sorry dude is time to vomit all dat u ve ever eat.#THAT AKWA IBOM BOY#
Many days for the thieves just one day for the owner. Most of those we worship in Nigeria as rich and wealth people are oftentimes in reality are those to be stone to death .Alhaji are supposed to be pple of honored but this one maximises his profits by liasing with the underworld to make pple cry.I just pray the law should take its full course.
Kudos to the police.

#Godblessnigeria
This is terrible
Only when cars are registered with VIN numbers saved will this problem of car theft be eradicated in Nigeria!
A man who buys stolen goods is also a chief and should face the law squarely .
See his head, he looks like a criminal. He should be punished severely #onelovefromSnow#
Everyday is for the thief but one day is for the owner of the house
Many days for crooked car dealer, one day for his victims.

"He said he was not a robber for purchasing from the thieves." Hear this fool o! And you will use someone's sweat and blood to take care of your family. This is how people bring curses upon themselves and their generations to come. Rot in jail!
End of the road for him, Chai there is God oooooo
