NSCDC NABS THREE FOR PRINTING FAKE DOLLAR NOTES IN ZAMFARA

The operatives of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) arrested three suspects on 3rd April 2023 in connection with printing and circulating fake U.S. dollar and naira notes in Gusau, Zamfara State.


The suspects, aged 28 and 29, were nabbed while trying to pay a transport fare to a commercial tricycle operator (also known as Keke Napep) with a fake N1,000 note. The operator's instinct of identifying fake new naira notes causes him to raise an alarm that led to the arrest of the culprits.

During the investigation, one of the suspects, Kamallu Sani, who has been in the business for a year revealed that one Ado Gurgu of Tsafe LGA in the state introduced him to the illicit business, also connected him to one Muazu Abdulkarim, the supplier of the fake currency and that each fake N1,000 note is been exchanged for N400.


Meanwhile, the operatives of the corps traced the supplier who is now at large to Kwartarkwarshi village where N60,000 and fake dollar currencies were confiscated.
