The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a 25-year-old man over alleged fake bomb threat messages sent to two private schools in Ikeja Government Reserved Area (GRA).
The suspect was tracked and arrested on January 24 in the Okota area of Lagos State following digital investigations.
According to the sources, the suspect allegedly sent WhatsApp messages threatening a fire explosion to the Human Resources Manager of AVI–CEENA School and the Chief Security Officer of Grange School, both located in Ikeja GRA.
Although the messages were sent from an unknown phone number, police said digital tracking led to the identification and arrest of the suspect, identified as Kosisochukwu Chukwuekenyem Ogbumuo.
The suspect is currently in police custody and will be charged to court after the conclusion of investigations.
Police said inquiries are ongoing to determine the motive behind the threats and whether other individuals were involved.
