Nigerian Army authorities have arrested two suspected members of a militia gang reported to be terrorizing residents of Katsina-Ala and its environs in Benue state and its environs.

The director of army public relations, Texas Chukwu, in a statement on Tuesday, June 19, 2018, said the army acted on a tip-off and recovered a locally made gun, one pistol and several rounds of ammunition.

The Army spokesperson disclosed that preliminary investigations revealed that the suspects are members of a notorious militia gang led by one Mr Gana, who is now at large.

Efforts are on to arrest other fleeing members of the gang.

He then called on members of the public to always report suspicious movement in their areas to law enforcement agencies.
