The Sokoto State Police Command has announced the arrest of several suspects involved in illegal possession of firearms and activities believed to be linked to terrorism.

Spokesman for the Command, DSP Ahmed Rufai, revealed that detectives from the State Intelligence Department apprehended one Bello Ibrahim, popularly known as ‘Bello Currency’, and four others.

Those arrested with him were Alhaji Muhammad Danlato, Alhaji Abun Buhari, Alhaji Faruku Alhaji, and Abubakar Furniture.

They were arrested over unlawful possession of firearms and suspected terror-related activities.

“According to investigations, Bello Ibrahim allegedly sold fabricated revolvers to the other four suspects under the pretext of self-defence.

“The weapons were unregistered, and no valid firearm licences were obtained, thereby violating the Firearms Act.

“Recovered items include multiple illegal firearms, four rounds of LAR ammunition, and one round of AK-47 ammunition,” the police spokesman said.

He added that the suspects were arrested during a coordinated operation in Tambuwal local government area of the State.

Similarly, on April 23, 2025, officers attached to Tureta Police Station intercepted one Yau Lawali of Yabawa Village, Bakura LGA of Zamfara State, during a stop-and-search operation. He said Lawali was found in possession of two locally fabricated guns and three rounds of AK-47 ammunition.

Also, on April 19, 2025, police officers on duty at Kebbe Police Station arrested three individuals, Danagaji Bala, Sani Muhammad, and Danjuma, all of Dogon Marke Village, who were allegedly found with a locally made revolver and 19 rounds of AK-47 live ammunition.

The Police Command reaffirmed its commitment to safeguarding lives and property and urged residents to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities to security agencies rather than resorting to unlawful measures.
