“When they discover that we have our security, they will think twice before attacking us. I am not saying a single word to be hidden.”

He also charged the public to make his claims go viral.

SP Benjamin Hundeyin,State Police Public Relations Officer, said Nwajagu was arrested during a midnight raid.

He said, “The operation was carried out at midnight. The security operatives didn’t meet him in his palace. But we found out through intelligence gathering that he had lodged in a hotel in Ejigbo.

“He was traced to the location and arrested around 1 am.

He is currently in the DSS custody where he is being investigated.”
