The Department of State Services (DSS) has arrested a medical doctor accused of transporting medical supplies from Sokoto to kidnapping syndicates operating in parts of Kwara State.
The suspect was intercepted in the Jebba axis after intelligence linked him to criminal groups seeking treatment for gunshot wounds sustained in recent clashes with security forces.
