Edo State Police Command arrested a 52-year-old Islamic spiritualist, Jubril Ibrahim, and four others on August 30, 2026, in Niger State, following alleged involvement in kidnapping. The suspects are Ahmadu Suleiman, Mohammed Abubakar, Tukur Adam (a.k.a. Dogo), Musa Ibrahim, and Iro Ibrahim. Police Commissioner Patrick Daaor stated that the suspects had been terrorizing parts of Edo North Senatorial District, particularly Auchi, Jattu, and Okpella.
The spiritualist claimed to only pray for the suspects, not prepare charms for them. The Anti-Kidnapping Unit and Violent Crime Response Unit swiftly acted after receiving reports of a kidnapping in Jattu, leading to the suspects' arrest. Police recovered firearms and ammunition during the operation.
