The operatives made this known via a statement issued on their Twitter account on Tuesday

The statement which was signed by the police public relations officer, Benjamin Hundeyin read, “Operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) have arrested one Dayo Jimoh ‘m’ aged 36 along Ojodu-Berger Road, Lagos after he and two others (still at large) hijacked two vehicles at gunpoint.
