The Federal Capital Territory Police Command said a man identified as Shuaibu Yushau who was arrested on July 8 for attempted suicide has been released on bail to his lawyer, Deji Adeyanju.


The FCT Police Command’s spokesperson, Josephine Adeh, in a statement on X.com on Friday, said Yushau’s release follows a mental assessment conducted by the FCTA SDS.


She said although the assessment report indicated that he is mentally stable, symptoms of anxiety, persistent worry, and fears were observed in the course of profiling him.


Adeh added that the FCTA SDS recommended that the suspect should be allowed to report weekly to their office for further psycho-social care and support, hence the reason for admitting him to bail.


She wrote, “On Thursday, July 18, 2024, the FCT police command released Alhaji Yushau Shuaibu on bail to his lawyer, Deji Adeyanju. Shuaibu who was arrested for climbing the Aso Radio mast. He was referred to the FCTA SDS for a mental assessment, which found him mentally stable.


“However symptoms of anxiety, persistent worry, and fears were noted during his profiling. The SDS recommended that he receive further psycho-social care and support, which contributed to the decision to release him on bail.”


Recall that that Shuaibu was arrested for climbing the Aso Radio mast in protest against insecurity and hardship in the country. He said he had been observing the mast for about a week before deciding to climb it.
