Miyetti Allah President arrested Over Unregistered Militia group

By our correspondent

The Department of State Security Services (DSS) has arrested the President of Miyetti Allah Association, Kauta Hore over the formation of an unregistered militia group.

The arrest was prompted by concerns that the recently formed Nomad’s Vigilante Group could potentially incite violence nationwide.

According to sources, the arrest was in connection with concerns that the recently formed Nomad’s Vigilante Group could potentially incite violence nationwide.

The source stated that the vigilante group in question had not undergone any formal registration process with the DSS, the police, or any other security agency.

“Our (DSS) operatives, in collaboration with soldiers from the Nigerian Army, conducted a raid at the Miyetti Allah’s Head Office in Nasarawa this afternoon, leading to the arrest of their National President, Bello Bodejo.

“This action was taken due to his involvement in creating a vigilante group that lacks recognition from the government,” the source said.

Several calls to president Bodejo’s phone number by journalists was futile, as it was not rechargeable.

The Secretary of the group, Sele Alhassan could not pick his phone, as he continuously pressed busy on the second dial.

But a source highlighted the potential threat posed by the unregistered nomad’s vigilante group, stressing that its existence outside the purview of government security agencies raised alarms regarding its impact on national security.

“The creation of that nomad’s vigilante group could cause violence in the country. The group was not registered with the DSS, the police, or any other security agency, and the group is not recognised by the Federal Government,” the source cautioned.
