Operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) have arrested five suspects for vandalising bridges in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Olusola Odumosu, the spokesman of the Corps said in a statement on Monday that members of the criminal syndicate were arrested following credible information and surveillance mounted by the Directorate of Intelligence and Investigation (DII) Crack Squad from the National Headquarters of the Corps with the support of other stakeholders.
The Commandant General of NSCDC, Dr Ahmed Abubakar Audi, worried by the incessant vandalism and theft of manhole covers on roads in the FCT, directed operatives of the Corps to redouble their efforts in ending the menace.
Odumosu said following this directive, officers and men of the Corps immediately evolved new measures to protect Critical National Assets and Infrastructure (CNAI) in the country, adding that the move had resulted in the arrest of the suspects who confessed to having carried out the act at night.
