The Command, in a statement issued by the Police Public Relation Officer (PPRO), DSP Alfred Alabo said its attention was drawn to the video purportedly emanating from a TikTok account identified as “Dam-Mallam68”.

According to the statement, the suspect in the video was seen assertively inciting the public to attack security operatives and burn down critical state and private infrastructures in Plateau State as part of the activities for the planned protest.

“Based on the strength of the information, the Plateau State Commissioner of Police, CP Emmanuel Olugbemiga Adesina, sets tactical assets of the Command on motion to trace and apprehend the source of the mischievous video.

“Consequently, on 28/07/2024 around 11:30 am, one Suleiman Yakubu (male, aged 34 years) of Jos North, Plateau State who appeared in the viral video was picked at Ahmadu Bello Way, Jos through an impeccable informant,” Alabo said.
