The men of Lagos State Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, arrested the suspected robbers after they allegedly snatched a Camry Saloon car at Bariga area of Lagos which they allegedly wanted to use for operation.
The father of two said there was nothing his family had not done to stop him from robbing people, but after such rituals or deliverance his desire to rob increased.
“It is not that I am greedy for money, but once that spirit enters me, I will want to go for robbery operation.”
He said he did not know why it was like that, adding that he and his parents had engaged some pastors and spiritualists for deliverance but it did not work.
“I have gone to churches for deliverance and it did not work and when the spirit possesses me, I must go for operation,” he said.
Lawal said he has been praying and advising his children not to commit crime because it does not pay.
When asked if he will go back to committing crime, if set free, Lawal said he would not like to do so but he will need help and solution so that he would stop it finally.
Police source said the suspects, who are currently detained, will be charged to court after investigation
