DSS Seizes Major Arms Shipment in Kano, Arrests Top Bandit Supplier

DSS operatives intercepted a major arms consignment in Gezawa LGA, Kano State, cutting off a crucial supply line for bandits in northwest Nigeria. Acting on actionable intelligence, teams tracked and stopped Abubakar Muhammad’s vehicle before it left the state. A search uncovered three AK-47 rifles, four RPG tubes and ammunition magazines bound for Saidu Marafa’s terror network in Zamfara. A senior DSS official confirmed the raid was driven by service-generated intelligence. The suspect is in custody as forensic analysis of the seized weapons continues ahead of formal prosecution.
