TWO MEN ARRAIGNED FOR CLONING GOV. AMBODE'S PHONE NUMBER

Two men were arraigned by the Department of State Service (DSS) on Wednesday before an Isolo Magistrates’ Court in Lagos for allegedly cloning the phone number of the state Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Abode.
Rilwanu Jamiu of No. 10, Giwa Street, off Oka Akoko Street, Lagos and Balogun Stanley Oyewole of 65, Unity Street, Ikotun, were brought before Mrs. Adetola Adedayo on a two-count charge of fraud preferred against them by the state government.
