The Kaduna State Police Command has said that the maj who breached security during the inauguration of projects at Murtala Mohammed Square by President Bola Tinubu was born with “psychiatric disorders”.
The Command’s Spokesperson, DSP Mansir Hassan, in a statement, said the individual, Umar Mohammed, was a native of Anguwan Muazu in Kaduna.
The police admitted that the man was screened and admitted into the stadium as an All Progressives Congress (APC) supporter, wearing the standard campaign T-shirt and carrying banners bearing the images of the President and Governor Uba Sani like every other supporter admitted into the stadium.
The police explained that the individual, out of excitement, breached the protocol and jumped into the restricted arena out of curiosity to catch a closer look at the President.
The police said the fellow was immediately blocked and arrested by the security team.
The police said the fellow was thoroughly searched and no incriminating item was found in his possession.
Meanwhile, the Kaduna State Commissioner of Police, Rabiu Muhammad, has warned mischief makers and members of the public to refrain from spreading falsehoods or politicising the incident.
The commissioner said the matter would be further investigated.
