The Public Relations Officer of the NSCDC, Ibrahim Abdullahi, confirmed the arrest in a statement made available to newsmen on Friday.

According to the statement, the suspect was apprehended around 10 pm on Wednesday by vigilant officers of the corps while sneaking into the female hostel of Skyline University Nigeria, situated along Sardauna Crescent, Nassarawa GRA, Kano State.

“The suspect was said to have disguised and dressed in women’s garb and was found with local charms around his body,” the PRO said.

An investigation is still ongoing to unravel the motive for his intrusion into the private university’s women’s hostel, according to Abdullahi.

“The State Commandant, NSCDC Kano Command, Mohammed Falala, had recently, in a strategic meeting with management, charged officers and men of the command to be extra vigilant.

“He had stressed the need to intensify surveillance in and around public and private educational institutions in the state to safeguard them against criminally-minded elements,” the statement said
