*Some Policemen Aided Him, Rich Kids Fell His Victim
For those who have fallen victims to his numerous escapades both in Nigeria and outside Nigeria, the name of Razak Olatunji Olaniyi, a.k.a. Ga,y is the beginning of wisdom for young Nigerians who cruise around the town with state-of the-art-vehicles.
In the reasoning of Gay, a leader of a crime syndicate, any young Nigerian who rides expensive vehicle or uses a Blackberry phone belongs to the group of “Yahoo Boys” who must be arrested and made to pay certain amounts of money into his personal account or part with their vehicles.
Sharpedgenews.com investigation revealed that Razak Olatunji Olaniyi who is known as “Gay” has made billions of Naira through this illegal operation that is usually aided by some corrupt officers of the Nigeria Police Force.
Further investigation by Sharpedgenews.com showed that in most cases, Gay and his gang will mount illegal road blocks on popular roads where expensive vehicles pass. And it is usually after they spot young men in expensive vehicles that they order the drivers to stop and one of his gang members will take control of the vehicle after they must have threatened the occupants with their weapons.
Olaniyi who resides in Lagos we gathered had extended his dragnet to other states in the Southwest of Nigeria, where he usually operates unhindered through the assistance of the corrupt officers of the Police Force.
A source even confided to Sharpedgenews.com that Olaniyi even went as far as Malaysia in South Asia in this covert operation and that he came back with millions of Ringgits, the Malaysian currency.
Sharpedgenews.com equally gathered that even most of the Yahoo Boys, the internet scammers who have fallen victims to his deceits have lost millions of Naira while some lost their expensive vehicles to Rasak Olatunji Olaniyi and his gang.
However, nemesis caught up with Rasak Olatunji Olaniyi and his gang when they came to Ibadan on a similar covert operation on October 4, 2011 and arrested some innocent youth at Dugbe area of the city.
The young men who were riding towards Dugbe area of the city were stopped and as usual one of his gang members took over the wheel and went about raiding joints and hotels were young men were sighted.
Olatunji, Sharpedgenews.com gathered, was so daring that he took his victims to Iyaganku Police Station and ordered the officers on duty to detain the arrested youth and that he and his gang members were from Lagos on a special operation in Ibadan.
The unsuspecting or rather gullible officers on duty actually detained the suspects under the order of Olatunji and his gang. It was on the second day when one of the detained youth was taken for a search at his house that his uncle began to make calls. In the process, the State Commissioner of Police, Moses Onireti was contacted and he ordered that Razak Olatunji Olaniyi and his gang be arrested and moved from Iyaganku Police Station to the Police Headquarters in Eleyele.
Corroborating Sharpedgenews.com investigation, Olu Soyombo, a retired Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Commerce and Industry in Ogun State, whose son was one of the victims of the criminal gang, said that he got a call that his son was arrested in Ibadan.
According to him, his son only came to Ibadan for a function and wondered why innocent young men would be arrested under such condition without committing any crime.He therefore appealed to Police authorities to bring the perpetrators of the act to book so as serve as deterrent to others.
Further investigation by Sharpedgenews.com revealed that Razak Olatunji Olaniyi has been presenting himself to members of the public as a Police Officer based on his influence within the Police Force in Lagos State.
Sharpedegenews.com equally gathered that Gay had used his influence with the Lagos State Police to commit many atrocities and that many politicians even used him for such covert operations.
Efforts by Sharpedgenews.com to get the reaction of the Oyo State Police Command proved abortive as the Force Public Relations Officer, Femi Okanlawon was not on seat at the time of filing this report.
