The Department of State Service (DSS) has arrested a medical doctor, who supplies drugs and treats bandits of gunshot wounds.
The arrest of the medical doctor was made known in a statement signed by Rafiu Ajakaye who is the chief press secretary to the Kwara State governor. He said the doctor was coming all the way from Sokoto State to the location of the terror gangs based in Kwara State.
“The Department of State Service has taken into custody a medical doctor who was ferrying drugs from Sokoto to kidnappers in parts of Kwara State,” said the statement.
“The doctor was intercepted in Jebba area following intelligence reports about the activities of the kidnappers and their couriers.
“The secret service says the criminal gangs appear desperate for medical care following gunshot wounds sustained in encounters with security forces.
“So, we are advising improved security measures in health facilities in thickly forested areas, which the kidnappers may target,” according to a security official.
