A 27-year-old native of Ogoni, Meshark Monday, was apprehended by crack operatives of the Olu Obasanjo Division on May 2nd around 12:45 am. Driving a Toyota Corolla along Olu Obasanjo, Monday’s suspicious maneuvers caught officers’ attention as he attempted to evade them near the G.R.A junction. After a high-speed chase onto Abah road, he was successfully apprehended.

During interrogation, Monday, a security officer at Geepap Mobile Company, confessed to his crime. Despite working there for two years, he had concealed his driving skills.
