*_NSCDC ARRESTS 47 SUSPECTED FOREIGN NATIONALS IN NASARAWA STATE_*

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Nasarawa State Command, under the amiable leadership of *_Commandant Brah Samson Umoru_* has arrested 47 suspected foreign nationals, comprising 15 females and 32 males, in Mararaba, Karu Local Government Area of Nasarawa State.

The suspects, who claimed to be from Mali, were found in a building in the Kudnawi II area, of Orange Market.

The arrest was made possible after a tip-off about the suspected foreigners living within the vicinity, immediately action was taken and investigation was launched, which led to the arrest of the individuals. The suspects confessed to entering Nigeria through Ghana and had been living in the area for almost a month, claiming to be involved in network marketing known as Qnet.

The NSCDC worked with the Nigeria Forest Security Services, vigilante groups, community leaders, and market associations to facilitate the arrest and transfer of the suspects.

The individuals were later handed over to the Department of State Services (DSS), and subsequently to the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) for profiling and further action.

The NSCDC remains committed to ensuring the security and safety of lives and property in Nasarawa State and will continue to work with other security agencies to address issues of foreign nationals engaging in unauthorized activities.
