The federal government on Friday, arraigned the president of the Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore group, Bello Bodejo, before a Federal High Court in Abuja.¹
The Miyetti Allah leader was arraigned before Justice Inyang Ekwo on a three-count charge for allegedly establishing and supporting unlawfully an ethnic militia group – Kungiya Zaman Lafiya.
The office of the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) filed a case against Bodejo, accusing him of violating the Terrorism (Prevention and Prohibition) Act, 2022.
