Man arrested for a bus that got missing at lovers house.

A driver of a bus conveying Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation workers has run into trouble after he woke up at his lover’s house on Assfood Street, Oriola, Alapere, Lagos and discovered that the staff bus, a N23m Toyota Hiace, had been stolen.

The police arrested the driver, Wasiu Aliyu, in connection with the theft on the ground that he parked the bus at an unsafe spot.

He said, “I was employed by the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation as a casual worker sometime in 2014. At about 8pm on January 21, I went to my girlfriend’s house in Oriola to pass the night. A man came to wake me up around 4am that he saw some boys inside the bus.

“Before I got to where the bus was, they had left with it. It was a mistake that I parked the bus on the street because there is no security there.” he told the punch newspaper.

He was arraigned to court where he pleaded not guilty and was granted bail by the presiding judge.
