Police Arrest Fake Soldier Amid Plateau Security Crisis
The Plateau State Police Command announced the arrest of a fake soldier on Thursday amidst a security crisis in Jos, the state capital. The suspect was apprehended in the Angwan Rukuba community, which has been affected by recent deadly attacks that claimed 28 lives.
The Commissioner of Police, Bassei Ewah, confirmed the arrest and invited members of the press to cover the event scheduled for today at 5:30 PM. This arrest is seen as a significant step towards addressing security concerns in the state, especially following a 48-hour curfew imposed by the Plateau State government due to escalating violence.
The police have assured that security agencies are working to restore calm and maintain law and order in the affected areas. The Commissioner is expected to provide further details about the suspect's activities during the press conference.
