The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Abuja's Federal Capital Territory has arrested three individuals suspected of vandalising an NNPC petroleum pipeline in Dafa, Kwali Area Council. Commandant Olusola Odumosu announced the arrests after intelligence-led surveillance detected unauthorized activities along the pipeline right of way.
The three suspects identified are Maitama Inuwa, Yahuza Danlami and Yasir Abdulrahman. The pipeline supplies crude oil and petroleum products to the Kaduna Refinery and NNPC depots nationwide. The suspects were arrested after they attempted to load the abandoned pipe sections into a truck days later. Preliminary investigations suggest a larger organized network is involved in the vandalism and illicit sale of scrapped pipeline components.
