 DSS NABS SUSPECTED MAJOR  ARMS SUPPLIER IN PLATEAU STATE


The operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) have

arrested one Musa Abubakar suspected to be a key arms dealer linked to armed groups in Plateau State and other part of the north. This followed a precise  intelligence received by the DSS which led to his arrest on November 12,  2025.

 The DSS source notes, "The suspect confessed to having manufactured and distributed high-caliber weapons and ammunition to armed groups involved in violent attacks in Plateau State and other northern regions."


His arrest reportedly followed credible intelligence on activities of the suspect, which led to a targeted raid on his arms manufacturing workshop located in the Mista Ali area of Bassa Local Government Area, Plateau State.


'Abubakar was apprehended red-handed with various Improvised Explosive Device (IED) components, chemicals, and equipment, which have all been confiscated by DSS operatives."


This significant arrest comes shortly after the recapture of Abdulazeez Obadaki, aka Bomboy, a Kuje Prison escapee who masterminded Owo and Deeperlife Church attacks.


These recent operational successes recorded by the DSS display the Agency's commitment to combating terrorism and enhancing national security. 


It could be recalled that the DSS arrested a total  of 9 high-profile  suspects involved in the Plateau and Benue attacks including Timna Manjol (46), who already pleaded guilty to two of four count charges including illegal possession of firearms in a charge marked FHC/ABJ/CR/451/2025. Manjo, of First Baptist Chuch, Mangu LGA, Plateau State.
