Police operatives in Kwara State have arrested four suspects over alleged illegal firearms possession after intercepting a cache of weapons during a routine stop-and-search operation along Sabongida Road.

According to security sources, on 11 December 2025 at approximately 0845 hours, operatives from the Jebba Division apprehended Musa Mohammed and Musa Abdullahi, both residents of Saorami, Masegun LGA, Niger State.

The suspects were found in possession of six locally made AK-47 rifles, one pump-action gun, four cartridges, and one expended AK-47 round concealed inside a bag.

Interrogation revealed that the firearms were intended for delivery to two other suspects, Mohammad Umoru and Magin Isah of Shonga, who were subsequently arrested.

All four suspects have been handed over to the IRT (Intelligence Response Team) operatives on special duties in Kwara State for further investigation, according to reliable security sources.
