BREAKING: Suspected Arms Supplier to IPOB/ESN Arrested in Anambra – Major Security Breakthrough Anambra, Nigeria – June 3, 2025 In a significant breakthrough in the fight against insecurity in the Southeast, security operatives have apprehended a suspected arms supplier believed to be providing weapons to members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and the Eastern Security Network (ESN). The arrest took place during a covert operation coordinated by a joint task force of the Nigerian Army and Department of State Services (DSS). The suspect, whose identity is currently being withheld for investigative purposes, was reportedly found in possession of high-grade firearms and ammunition intended for delivery to militant cells in the region. According to preliminary intelligence reports, the suspect had been on the security watchlist for months and is believed to be part of a wider arms trafficking network fueling separatist violence in Anambra and nearby states. A senior security official involved in the operation confirmed that digital communication devices, logistics plans, and records of transactions were recovered from the suspect, shedding light on the scale of the weapons distribution network. Authorities say the arrest is a “critical link” in dismantling the illegal supply chain that supports violent agitation and criminal operations under the guise of secessionist movements. The development is expected to lead to further arrests and intelligence breakthroughs as investigations continue. The Federal Government has reiterated its zero-tolerance stance on armed insurrection and urged citizens to report suspicious activity in their communities to aid ongoing efforts to secure lives and property. ⸻According to Nigeriastories #BreakingNews #AnambraSecurity #IPOB #ESN #ArmsTrafficking #SoutheastCrisis #NigeriaSecurity #DSS #JointTaskForce

Nigeria Arrests Soldiers, Police Over Arms Sales to Insurgents in Major Crackdown According to Reuters, the Nigerian military has arrested more than two dozen personnel—including 18 soldiers, 15 policemen, and 8 civilians—for allegedly selling weapons from military stockpiles to armed groups, including Islamist insurgents such as Boko Haram and ISWAP. Captain Reuben Kovangiya, spokesperson for the military's anti-insurgency operation, confirmed the arrests were part of a broader counter-arms and ammunition racketeering crackdown, targeting illegal activities within all operational theaters. "If any personnel engage in any act that is inimical to the system, they are arrested and tried," he stated. The development comes at a time when Nigeria—Africa’s most populous nation and top energy producer—is grappling with a worsening security crisis. Insurgent groups continue to carry out deadly raids in the northeast, with some attacks resulting in the seizure of weapons from military bases. The arrests signal a bold, if troubling, revelation about the internal breaches weakening Nigeria's security architecture—and the government’s renewed determination to restore accountability within its forces. #NigeriaSecurity #MilitaryCrackdown #ArmsTrafficking
