The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has apprehended three individuals suspected of vandalizing an NNPC petroleum pipeline in Dafa, Kwali Area Council of Abuja. The FCT Commandant of the NSCDC, Olusola Odumosu, announced the arrests during a press briefing. The operation, conducted on credible intelligence, resulted in the seizure of a long commercial truck loaded with vandalized NNPC petroleum pipes and 17 pieces of the pipes.
The suspects, Maitama Inuwa, Yahuza Danlami, and Yasir Abdulrahman, were identified as the driver, motor boy, and alleged representative of buyers, respectively. Preliminary investigations suggest the involvement of an organized criminal network, and the NSCDC is expanding the investigation to identify other individuals, financiers, and end-buyers. The command urges residents to report any suspicious activities around pipeline corridors.
