A man, identified as Muhammed Abdullahi has been arrested in connection with recent Jos crises by soldiers attached to the military Special Task Force (STF) in Jos. Abdullahi was apprehended last night in Rop Village in Barkin Ladi Local Government.
Parading the suspect at the headquarters of the Force, STF spokesman, Captain Charles Ekeocha, said that Abdulahi was one of more than 30 attackers who besieged Rop village yesterday night.
“The youths of the area alerted us of the impending attack and we moved in. When the attackers learnt of our presence, they aborted their plan. Unfortunately for this man, we met him on the road and we suspected him to be one of them,” Ekeocha said, “We conducted immediate search on him and found in his travelling bag some weapons of attack. The weapons in his travelling bag include a pistol, knife and handset.”
The Captain reiterated the preparedness of the team to work with the youths, and implored them to cooperate with the Force by supplying intelligence information.
“We are not spirits; we are also humans; we cannot succeed without people’s cooperation. We were able to arrest this man because the youths worked with us.”
He pointed out that the STF could only succeed in a place where it enjoys wide acceptance.
According to him, “Where the youths say they don’t want us, we vacate the area. Any day they are ready to accept us and they ask us to come back, we will go. There is no benefit in soldiers killing those we are brought to protect. People should stop this rumor that we aid some of the attacks; this will not help us or the peace process.”

We have heard of many arrests like this in the past without carrying out any action against them, so, what are they going to do with this one now? Let us wait and see.
