Three scavengers have been arrested for allegedly vandalizing a transformer at Anguwar Sabon-Tasha in Abaji metropolis of Abuja.

A resident of the area, Shuaibu Musa, who spoke to Daily Trust on Monday, said the incident happened at CAC Church along Agnana Road around 6:12pm on Friday, March 11.

According to Musa, the suspects used knives and pliers to cut the cables and then moved them into an uncompleted building in the area.

"It was one of the residents who discovered that the cables were vandalized and immediately raised an alarm and the police were alerted," he said.

“The police traced the cables and discovered them at a scavengers’ shop from where three of the suspects were apprehended,”

He said the three suspects are currently being detained at the Abaji police command in the area.

A police source, who preferred anonymity, confirmed the arrest of the scavengers, saying the Abaji branch manager of Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC), had been alerted.

The Abaji branch manager of Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC), Joshua Dangana Erena, confirmed the arrest of the suspected cable vandals.

The AEDC manager, who decried incessant cases of vandalizing of transformer cables in the area, appealed to residents to always collaborate with security agents and vigilantes to curtail the crime

Residents of Anguwar Kekeshi and Naharati in the area have reportedly been thrown into darkness over two months due to the rate of vandalization of transformer cables in the area.

Abegi, the 3 of them look like Aboki, they look like all these condemn Iron boys, just pray they don't attack your property because they can destroy a Rolls Royce just to steal the iron parts of the car, like how they did our family house when there was no one staying in it...

We heard Abba kyari the tailor is behaving unruly in NDLEA custody. We also heard he orders for starched clothes to wear to court.
If he is tired of NDLEA custody he should be made a roommate to Evans.
We learnt Evans have been missing him.

Those who were paid to hunt and kill innocent people in the east and blamed it on mazo namadi kanu are now currently in jail with him. Karma is really fast.

Why are some people so useless?

The government should send them to jail for at least 45yrs for destruction of public property.

No special fuel station for you because you're a PDP or APC supporter . Both Christian and Muslim students are at home because of ASUU Strike , but you'll still let them divide you based on these silly reasons during elections
