Two suspects arrested with weapons for planned attack in the North

The Department of State Services on Thursday in Kano State arrested two suspects carrying arms for a planned attack in a northern state.

The DSS spokesperson, Peter Afunanya, said this in a statement on Thursday.

According to him, weapons seized from the suspects are two AK-47 assault rifles, two empty AK-47 magazines, a red boxer motorcycle and a sack of yams in which the guns were concealed.

He stressed the need for the citizens to be extra vigilant and report any unusual or suspicious movements, persons, or acts to security agencies nearest to them.

“Operators and patrons of fun, hospitality, and tourism centres are enjoined to be cautious during the festive periods,” Afunanya said.
