The Department of State Services (DSS) says it has arrested some tailors suspected to be mass-producing the Russian flag in Kano State.
In a statement on Monday, the DSS said some of the sponsors have also been apprehended.
“The DSS can confirm that Adaramoye Michael (aka Michael Lenin) is not in its custody,” the agency wrote on its X handle.
“Meanwhile, the Service has apprehended some tailors in Kano State responsible for making Russian flags being distributed in the area. Some of their sponsors have also been picked. An investigation is ongoing.”
The move came in the wake of some #EndBadGovernance protesters carrying Russian flags in several northern states. It is unclear why the demonstrations are holding onto the flags.
