The DSS, accompanied by Nigerian Army soldiers, reportedly raided the Miyetti Allah’s Head Office, arresting Bodejo at the gate. Sources within the DSS disclosed that the arrest was made due to concerns that the newly formed Nomad’s Vigilante Group could potentially incite violence nationwide. The group had not been registered with the DSS, the police, or any other security agency, rendering it unrecognized by the Federal Government.
The DSS spokesperson, Dr. Peter Afunanya, has not provided official comments on the situation as of now. Bodejo had previously emphasized that the volunteer vigilantes would operate within the existing laws of the country during their activities. He urged collaboration with the Police, Army, and other security agencies to ensure a comprehensive approach to security across the local councils of Nasarawa. CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
