The operation, carried out on October 1st by the Anti-Kidnapping Unit, led to the apprehension of Yau Sani, also known as Baba, an ex-convict, alongside Nuhu, alias Giwa, Kabiru Mohammed, and Yusuf Hassan.

 

The suspects are accused of carrying out several kidnappings across the FCT and its surrounding areas, including Dakwa, Dawaki, Aco Estate, Dupe Village, Zuma Rock, and Kuchiko Village.
