It was gathered that the suspect said to have arrived
in Jos from Zamfara State on Wednesday evening, May 29, 2024, was apprehended
opposite the NTA Park in Jos while trying to deliver the arms to the bandits.
The Chairman of the Jos NTA Park,
Ibrahim Maikwudi, confirmed the development to a source on Thursday, and
narrated how the suspect was nearly lynched by an angry mob before he was
rescued by the security operatives.
“It was the security men who came on time
that saved the suspect. It was around 5 pm yesterday that the man came and was
opposite NTA park at the junction leading to the state Secretariat,” he
explained.
He was just going up and down making calls
and informing some people that he was just at the NTA park for them to come and
collect their delivery. So, two men were nearby watching and listening to his
calls and suspected something was wrong.
“The two men could not approach the suspect
but when our people were called, our boys now approached him, and asked him
some questions but his answers did not add up
“So, they caught him and collected a bag he
was holding
"The man protested but when they opened the bag,
behold, it was full of arms and ammunition.
“It was then that people tried to beat him
up but we rushed to call the police because we feared the mob might kill him
there. He confessed that he was not the only one on the mission to Jos but they
are many others.
“So that’s how men from the Special
Investigations Bureau unit of the Police came and arrested and took him into
custody.”
