Bello Bodejo, the president of Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, was arrested by the Department of State Services (DSS) on Tuesday at the organization’s headquarters in Nasarawa State.
At around 3:40 p.m., a combined team of DSS agents and Nigerian Army personnel made the arrest.
The arrest was related to Miyetti Allah’s recent formation of the Nomad’s Vigilante Group, a vigilante organisation in Nasarawa State.
The DSS source attested that worries that the formation of an unregistered group might instigate violence across the country served as the impetus for Bodejo’s arrest.

The DSS source claimed that the Nomad’s Vigilante Group was not formally registered with the police or any other government security organisation.
The source told Newsmen, “Our (DSS) operatives and soldiers of the Nigerian Army stormed the Miyetti Allah’s Head Office in Nasarawa this afternoon, and we’ve arrested their National President, Bello Bodejo, for creating a vigilante group that is not recognised by the government.
“The creation of that nomad’s vigilante group could cause violence in the country. The group was not registered with the DSS, the police, or any other security agency, and the group is not recognised by the Federal Government,” the source disclosed.
