The arrest of the alleged orchestrator behind the tragic incident on the Abuja-Kaduna train route has been confirmed by law enforcement authorities.
Occurring in March of 2022, this appalling event has shaken the region.
Authorities have identified the purported mastermind as Ibrahim Abdullahi, who is known by the foreboding alias of Mandi.
On Thursday, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the Police Public Relations Officer in Kaduna, divulged this significant development to the press.
The suspect is believed to have been involved in the abduction of students from Greenfield University in 2021 as well, according to reports.
During Mandi’s apprehension, authorities seized a total of 48 AK-47 rifles, and initiatives are now underway to uncover the identity of his benefactor and weapon supplier.
