DSS Arrests 23 Terrorists, Kidnappers Across Nigeria by femtomax: 7:17pm On Dec 30, 2016
The Department of State Services (DSS) has announced the arrest of some suspected terrorists, kidnappers and dare-devil armed robbers in some states of Nigeria.
Many of the suspects, according to findings by NAIJ.com, are from the northern part of the country.

A statement released by the spokesperson of the security agency, Tony Opuiyo, on Friday, December 30, 2016, for example, revealed that it arrested the trio of Abubakar Musa, Ismail Musa and Suleiman Mainasara, on November 29, 2016 at the Aduwawa area of Benin city, Edo state.
“Prior to their arrest, they were members of a kidnap gang that terrorised commuters and residents of communities along the major highways between Edo and Kogi states,” the DSS said.
On November 30, 2016, the DSS further said it arrested one Ibrahim Adamu and three of his associates whose names were given as Umar Abubakar, Ibrahim Salisu and Abdullahi Abubakar in Ibillo village in the Akoko-Edo area of the state.
According to the secret agency, these four belong to a larger gang that carried out their acts along the Kogi-Abuja road.
On 20th December, 2016 at Katsina-Ala town in Benue state, the DSS said suspected kidnappers comprising one Ernest Benze, Terkura Tyokishir alias Mpoto, and Anun Aondona, identified as members of the Terwase Akwaza kidnap syndicate, were arrested for complicity in abduction incidents in the state.
“Furthermore, one Usman Sanusi Musa aka Keke, a notorious kidnap kingpin, was intercepted by the service on 15th December, 2016 at Sabuwar-Kaura village in Doguwa LGA, Kano state. Musa is a high-profile criminal who, in conjunction with other criminal associates of his gang, has been terrorizing residents and communities in Bauchi, Kaduna, Kano and Plateau states.
“In continuation of the fight against terrorism, on 30th November, 2016, three suspected Boko Haram fighters namely Samaila Muhammed, Sanusi Musa and Hudu Muhammad were arrested at Dirbunde village of Takai LGA in Kano state.
“The trio had perfected plans to carry out series of coordinated attacks with improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in selected states of the north-west zone in the month of November, 2016 to disrupt festive activities during the end of year and the new year of 2017,” the statement said.

In a related development, operatives of the service said they arrested Sani Digaru, along with one Mohammed Ali, on December 25, 2016 along Gombe-Dukku road, Gombe.
His arrest was reportedly sequel to an earlier intelligence that he was in possession of cash worth N2 million meant for the coordination of a terrorist operation in Yobe and Bauchi states.
He was reportedly fataly injured when he wanted to escape.
In Abuja, the DSS arrested some suspects who specialized in robbing visiting foreign residents/customers of luxury hotels.
“For instance, on 5th December, 2016, the gang robbed an expatriate in a high brow hotel in Abuja and carted away his money and other valuables.
“However, acting on actionable intelligence and with the support and cooperation of sister agencies and the hotel management, the service arrested one Ikechukwu Obadlegwu and Ikechukwu Joseph Eke.
“While Obadlegwu carried out surveillance on potential targets for the group, Eke was the alleged kingpin and mastermind of the whole operation.
“Also, at Gwaron Dutse, Kano Municipal, Kano state, Auwalu Abdullahi Yakasai, a notorious fraudster, was apprehended for allegedly defrauding Jaiz and Unity Banks of N100 million and N50 million respectively.
“The service also arrested one Bashir Shuaibu on 5th December, 2016 at Tsamiya village, Gezawa LGA of Kano state for obtaining money from unsuspecting victims through threat messages. He was arrested while in the process of defrauding another victim.
“On 28th December, 2016 about 0930 hours, at Ben Kalio Housing Estate, Damaturu, Moh’d Yusuf Daya, a 10-yearold boy was kidnapped.
