Omotayo Olaiya was arrested after the police received a complaint from Mrs Olatunji Shakirat Mayo. Mrs Mayo told the police on Monday, May 3, that Olaiya threatened to kill her with a gun inside the Ansarudeen Mosque, located at no 72-74, Bola Street, Ebute-Metta Lagos. On the strength of the complaint, a Surveillance Team was detailed to track down the suspect and he was eventually arrested, the Lagos State Police PRO, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi said in a statement.
