Operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) on Thursday arrested two gunmen in Kano State.
The DSS spokesman, Peter Afunanya, who confirmed the development in a statement in Abuja, said the suspects were on their way to deliver the arms for a planned attack in one of the northern states in the country when they were arrested.
He added that the operatives recovered two AK-47 assault rifles; two empty AK-47 magazines; a red boxer motorcycle; and a sack of yams in which the guns were hidden from the suspects.
The DSS spokesman urged Nigerians to be extra vigilant and report any suspicious movements by persons to the nearest security posts.
“Operators and patrons of fun, hospitality, and tourism centres are enjoined to be cautious during the festive periods.
“They should scale up measures to ensure the safety of their facilities,” Afunanya stated.
