The Nigerian Army has distanced itself from the arrest of four individuals allegedly involved in cult-related activities in Ogun State. The suspects were initially reported to have been arrested by soldiers, but the Army has clarified that they were not involved in the operation.
Police Confirm Arrest
The Ogun State Police Command confirmed the arrest of the suspects, who were paraded at the State Police Headquarters. The police recovered locally made pistols, live cartridges, and charms from the suspects. The Command's Public Relations Officer, Omolola Odutola, stated that the suspects are currently undergoing investigation [1].
Army's Denial
The Nigerian Army's spokesperson, Onyema Nwachukwu, emphasized that the Army does not engage in arrests of civilians unless in support of civil authorities under specific operational mandates. Nwachukwu urged the public to rely on credible sources for information and to report any suspicious activities to the appropriate security agencies [2].
