Group Alleges Secret Plot to Arrest Atiku, Amaechi, Aregbesola in Nigeria
A civil society group in Nigeria has raised alarm over an alleged secret plot to arrest and detain prominent opposition figures such as Atiku Abubakar, Rotimi Amaechi, and Rauf Aregbesola. The group warns that these actions could pose a danger to Nigeria's democracy, especially amidst heightened political tensions ahead of future elections.
The alleged plan, involving multiple security institutions, aims to neutralize opposition forces within emerging coalition platforms. This covert operation follows earlier arrests involving figures like Aminu Tambuwal and Abubakar Malami, suggesting a political agenda rather than genuine law enforcement efforts.
