The fleeing terror suspect, Suleiman Sidi, was arrested in the early hours of Monday at the Area 1 Motorpark, in the Federal Capital Territory while attempting to board a commercial vehicle to Maiduguri, Borno State. When he was searched, three wraps of cannabis sativa were found on him.

During preliminary interview, the wanted terror suspect confimed he was remanded at the Kuje Medium Security Custodial Centre for terrorism and robbery charges, adding that he was indeed one of the inmates who escaped from the facility last Tuesday.

NDLEA Chairman NDLEA, Brigadier-General Buba Marwa (Rtd) has directed that the wanted suspect should be immediately handed over to the Nigerian Correctional Service, NCoS.
