According to the So-Safe Corps spokesperson, Moruf Yusuf in a signed press statement, Mujeeb was rescued from the clutches of the armed robbers on Friday, September 9, 2022.

"On this fateful day, Mr. Ibrahim Oluwaseun, a 22-year-old resident of Olorogbo Compound, Asheko/Ibatefin Area of Ipokia Local Government, pretended to be a passenger and told the victim to take him from Aferiku Street, Idirko to Obalana Street, along Bebe road, leading to the Republic of Benin.
"The suspect, on robbery mission, later instructed the bike man to go through other narrow route that leads to the same destination.
"The suspect then brought out a gun, later discovered to be a toy gun, and commanded that he surrender himself and the bike or lose his life.
"At the scene, the So-Safe Patrol Team, Idiroko Division, led by CSC Abdulkareem Muhammad, witnessed the funny act, pounced on the suspect and got him arrested," the statement concluded.
