Police in Abuja arrest an NSCDC officer over an alleged shooting at Kubwa market. The reports say the arrest follows gunfire connected to a confrontation involving market activity in the Kubwa area.
Across the outlets, the suspect is identified as Onoja Samuel (described as an NSCDC officer, including as a Deputy Superintendent of Corps in one report). Several accounts say the police link the alleged shooting to an incident affecting the officer’s wife, while another frames it as a confrontation with traders. Police say items were recovered, including a pistol and live ammunition.
One outlet adds that a security analyst said the incident occurred on a specific date (October 25, 2026) and frames it as shots fired into the air during the trader confrontation. Overall, the coverage largely agrees on the arrest, location (Kubwa, Abuja), and the alleged circumstances, but differs on whether the trigger is described primarily as a personal matter involving the wife or as a market/traders confrontation.
