A 7-man syndicate that allegedly specializes in stealing tricycles and motorcycles in Adamawa State has been smashed.
The Adamawa State Police Command said in a statement released to newsmen in the early hours of Thursday that its operatives disconnected and apprehended the members of the syndicate “specialized in stealing and illegal trade of stolen tricycles and motorcycles within the Yola metropolis.”
Signed by police spokesman Sulaiman Nguroje, the statement clarified that the arrest of the syndicate members was the result of a well-coordinated intelligence operation that also led also to recovery of two stolen tricycles and one motorcycle.
“On the 24th of June, 2025, operatives of the Command attached to the State Intelligence Department (SID), acted upon credible information and apprehended one Mohammed Alhaji, 25 years old, of Hulere Ward, Yola North LGA. During interrogation, the suspect confessed to being part of a syndicate that specializes in the theft of tricycles and motorcycles in Yola,” the police command stated.
It revealed that one Jafar Babangida, 19 years old, also of the same address stole two TVS tricycles (Keke-Napep) from different locations in Yola.
According to the police, “The duo conspired and sold one of the stolen tricycles to Ziyau Garba, 38 years old, of Sangere, and the second to Bawuro Ibrahim, 37 years old, of Vinikilang, who in turn sold it to one Sahabi Mohammed, 35 years old, of Vinikilang Ward all of Girei Local Government Area.
“Similarly, the same Jafar Babangida sometimes stole a Jincheng motorcycle, dismantled it, and conspired with Lukman Usman, 15 years old, of Hulere Ward, to sell the motorcycle parts to Auwal Musa, 30 years old, of Nyakore Ward, Yola North LGA.”
The police affirmed that all suspects have been arrested and have voluntarily confessed to their involvement in the organized crimes and an investigation was ongoing for further recoveries and possible arrest of more suspects.

Lady cries out after her brother was knocked down by keke on his way to early morning test at UniAbuja, faces possible leg amputation
A visibly distressed lady has cried out over a tragic accident involving her younger brother, a student of the University of Abuja.
According to her account, the incident occurred in the early hours of the morning when students were struggling to get to school for a test allegedly scheduled around 5 a.m.
She explained that while her brother and a coursemate were trying to cross the road in front of the University of Abuja, a commercial tricycle (keke), reportedly driving against traffic, knocked them down.
As of the time she shared the video, her brother was said to be unconscious and already being prepared for surgery. Doctors, she stated, described his condition as critical, adding that there was a possibility his leg might have to be amputated.
The lady further claimed that although the tricycle rider was arrested, there were moves to release him, and that the school authorities had not reached out or offered any form of support since the incident.
She also revealed that the hospital initially rejected her brother due to the seriousness of his condition before eventually admitting him, while medical bills continued to pile up beyond what she could afford.
