The Plateau State Police Command has announced the arrest of a fake soldier identified as Yakubu Abdullahi and six other suspects in connection with the Palm Sunday attack in Gari Yawaye community, Angwan Rukuba, Jos North LGA, where over 30 people were killed and several others injured.
Plateau police spokesman, Alfred Alabo, who confirmed the arrest of the suspects in a statement on Wednesday, disclosed that Abdullahi was apprehended dressed in military camouflage, a development he described as a calculated attempt to deceive unsuspecting victims and evade security checks.
