The Department of State Services (DSS) says it has successfully arrested five key suspects, namely: Isa Jibril, Jibril, Jibril Abu Omale Jibril, Halidu Sule and Amhodu Salifu, who are in a ploy to attack the UK and American Embassies and other western interests in Abuja.

The statement by the DSS further stated that, in April, two suspected Ansaru kingpins, Ahmed Momoh and Al-amin Mohammed Jamin were arrested on April 4, 2017 at Igarra, Akoko Edo LGA, Edo State.

The duo were confirmed associates of Abu Uwais, a main Ansaru kingpin terrorizing residents in Kogi and Edo States.

“While these terrorists are already undergoing detailed investigations, the Service stepped up its efforts at stamping out the menace of kidnapping. In Rivers State for instance, Daniel Dibiamaka was arrested on 24th March, 2017 at Obio/Akpor LGA, for his complicity in the kidnap of one Emmanuel Orji Ukah on 20th January, 2017.

On that same day, Godsgift Isioma was arrested over his plan to kidnap one Dr. G.N Douglas.
