The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Adamawa has apprehended three individuals for allegedly transporting vandalised pipelines belonging to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL). According to a statement from NSCDC Public Relations Officer DSC Amidu Nyako Baba, the suspects were captured by the Commandant’s Special Squad after receiving credible information about the movement of the pipes.
These pipes were concealed among bags of cassava to disguise their true purpose. Investigations suggest the pipes were loaded in Namnai, Taraba State, and were destined for Kano State. The lead suspect, Adamu Lawan, remains at large while the three detained individuals are currently in custody for further investigation and potential prosecution.
