Speaking to newsmen, Adamu revealed that he was recruited into the Nigeria Navy in 2019, adding that he was arrested for stealing a Mercedes Benz C300 car in Delta State.

“I was recruited into the Navy in 2019. I worked in Lokoja, Kogi State before I was posted to Warri, Delta State. It was when I went on a course in Sapele that I made the plan to steal a vehicle.

“After my course, Abdullahi came to visit me and I told him my plans, assuring him that we would make money and he agreed to join me” Adamu said.

On his part, Abdullahi, who was said to be a correctional service officer in Kaduna State, said Adamu invited him to Warri for the job, saying that was his first time taking part in a robbery.
