The arrest of Hadejia, a former aide to the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, by security operatives recently sparked concerns.
The suspect, who was a special adviser to Matawalle during his tenure as Governor of Zamfara State, was arrested on Monday.
Shortly after his arrest was made known to the public, photos and video clips of the suspect and some prominent politicians and celebrities emerged online, creating anxiety among concerned citizens.
Speaking on the matter at a press conference in Abuja, CUAT convener, Dr Emmanuel Agabi, said the decision by the National Security Adviser, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, to effect the arrest of the suspect was commendable.

CUAT also appealed to President Bola Tinubu to immediately relieve any of his appointees or cabinet members named as accomplices by Hadejia.
