Inside the backpack, was 22 ATM cards, one Nokia phone, a BlackBerry, a power bank, several bank tellers of recent bank transactions, and lots of invoices hidden in pieces of papers.
Eight of the credit cards are said to be valid, and they had different names and banks. The officers took him to their base in Alausa, Ikeja.
In the course of the interrogation, the 'mad man' threatened ‘I will make life unbearable for you if you don’t let me go’.

The police said the suspect was on their watch-list for about two weeks before he was arrested.
