The Kano State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has arrested three suspected vandals at Na’ibawa quarters, in Kumbotso Local Government Area (LGA) of the state.
The state NSCDC Public Relations Officer, SC Ibrahim Abdullahi, confirmed the arrest of the suspects in a statement on Thursday in Kano.

He listed the suspects as Lawan Ahmed, 17 of Unguwa uku quarters, Ahmad Yusuf, 21 of Kawo quarters, Nassarawa LG and Mujahid Kabiru, 22 of Kofar Waika, Gwale Local government.
“The command has since launched an investigation into the case with a view to effect more arrests of individuals linked to the syndicate,” the statement said.
Similarly, the State Command of the Corps, has also nabbed three suspected motorcycle thieves in Kano.
“Two of the suspects, Abdulrazaq Umar, 30 resident of Sharada Ja’en and Aminu shehu Muhammad, 42 of Janbulo quarters, Gwale local government area of Kano State.
“The men of the underworld are a syndicate that specialized in stealing motorbikes in the metropolis and the suspects were picked up at Unity road, Kano while unlocking a parked motorcycle in a nearby Plaza in the area,” Abdullahi said.
He said the other motorcycle thief, one Musa Ibrahim, 30 was arrested at Kwanar Gafan, Garun Malam LGA of the state.
“The suspect disassembled the bike’s key and stole it at Kwanar Garko, Garko local government of Kano, before his eventual arrest by operatives of NSCDC.
