Police in Kano arrest two suspects over an alleged threat or plot to kidnap the village head of Bangare, in Gezawa Local Government Area.

All three outlets say Kano State Police made the arrests following an investigation into the reported threat. The suspects are identified as Aliyu Naziru Garba and Bashir Alhasan. Two reports specify the men are 20 years old.

Vanguard adds that the case follows a report that the traditional leader, identified as Mallam Idris, received the threat, while The Punch frames the incident more generally as a threat to kidnap the village head. Daily Post Nigeria emphasises the suspects’ age and names and begins with details of the arrest.
