The terror fugitive behind the Nyanya bombing, Aminu Sadiq Ogwuche who was declared wanted by the Nigerian Police Force has been arrested.

This was announced today in Abuja at the National Briefing Centre, located at headquarters of National Orientation Agency (NOA). The coordinator of the national briefing centre, Director General of NOA, Mr. Mike Omeri, said Ogwuche was arrested in Sudan.
He said:

Aminu Sadiq Ogwuche who was earlier declared wanted has been arrested in Sudan with the effortsof the Army, DSS, the National Bureau of the Interpol based at the Nigerian
Police Force Headquarters and security operatives of Sudan".
Omeri further stated that the security operatives are already working to ensure his extradition back to Nigeria from where he was arrested.

The arrest came after the National Bureau of the Interpol based at the Nigerian Police Force Headquarters issued an international red alert for the search and arrest of terror fugitive.

Reports say Ogwuche, a U.K.-born son of a retired colonel, was once arrested on terrorism-related charges but was released upon pressure from his father and the human rights community. It was when his father was asked to produce his son and he couldn’t that it was learnt that the wanted man had escaped to Sudan.
