Sunday, December 28, 2025 -The Nigeria Police Force in Adamawa State has arrested two suspected kidnappers allegedly terrorising the Sarau Belel community in Maiha Local Government Area of the state.
The command’s spokesperson, Suleiman Nguroje, disclosed this
in a statement, saying the arrests followed a complaint over a kidnapping
threat received by the police.
According to Nguroje, the complaint was lodged on December
26, 2025, by Emmanuel Daniel, a resident of Sagal Village, who reported that he
had been threatened with abduction by two individuals.
“On 26th December 2025, the Command received a complaint
from Emmanuel Daniel, a resident of Sagal Village, who reported that he was
threatened with kidnapping by two individuals,” he said.
“The suspects allegedly claimed responsibility for the
kidnapping of his younger brother, Joshua Daniel, who was abducted in November
2024.”
Nguroje said the Commissioner of Police, Dankombo Morris,
immediately directed the Divisional Police Officer in Sarau Belel and other
operatives to carry out a coordinated operation, which led to the arrest of the
suspects.
He identified them as Sunday Yakubu, 36, and Daniel Yakubu,
38, both residents of Konjoli Village in Maiha Local Government Area.
“During the investigation, the suspects confessed to the
allegations and are currently aiding the command with useful information,”
Nguroje added. He said the commissioner had also directed the Anti-Kidnapping
Unit to take over the case to ensure a thorough investigation and diligent
prosecution in line with the law.
The command reassured residents of its commitment to
safeguarding lives and property across the state and urged members of the
public to continue providing timely and credible information to support police
operations.
