Kwara State authorities have announced the arrest of a medical doctor by the Department of State Services. The doctor was apprehended in Jebba while allegedly transporting medical supplies from Sokoto State to suspected kidnapping gangs operating within Kwara.
Security intelligence suggested these criminal groups were in urgent need of medical attention, likely for gunshot wounds sustained during encounters with security forces. This arrest is part of a broader effort to dismantle the logistical support networks of kidnappers in Nigeria’s North-Central region.
