The Adamawa State Police Command has successfully apprehended a 34-year-old suspected gunrunner, Sunday Moses, and confiscated a significant cache of weapons, including 364 rounds of live ammunition, two hand grenades, and other armaments.
SP Suleiman Yahaya Nguroje, the command’s spokesperson, confirmed the arrest in a statement on Tuesday, December 3, 2024. The suspect was detained for allegedly smuggling ammunition into the state.
This operation was part of the command’s increased efforts to ensure safety during the holiday season and the ongoing farm harvest period, which involved intensive patrols, raids, and stop-and-search operations that began on December 1, 2024.
The police operations extended across metro areas, including Song, Gombi, and Hong local government areas, where several criminal hideouts were dismantled.
Commissioner of Police, CP Dankombo Morris, praised the community’s cooperation and urged residents to stay alert and report any suspicious activities, emphasizing that collective efforts are crucial for maintaining peace and security.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
