Abdul Mahmud who was arrested, detained and later regained his freedom for standing up for a neighbour who had been threatened by Assistant Commissioner of Police Zara Mohammed, a member of the Multinational Joint Task Force.

ACP Zara Muhammed and a few other officers raided Karu in Nasarawa State two days ago, harassing some locals in the process.

In a tweet, Mahmud urged the police to call their officers to order.

“A serving Assistant Commissioner of Police serving with the Multinational Joint Task Force is intimidating civilians in Karu, Nasarawa State. @PoliceNG must call its officer to order.”

The police officers later invaded his home and arrested him.

“I have taken the intimidation of citizens too far. Because I defended ordinary citizens intimidated by ACP Zara Muhammed on Sunday in Karu, officers led by Insp. Sola Olalekan have arrested me in my own home. Headed to the station at Abacha Road, Mararaba, @policeng.”

  1. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting
    my own weblog and was wondering what all is needed to
    get set up? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?

    I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% sure.
    Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you
