The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Kano State Command, has said it has arrested one Muhammad Munzali, 35, for allegedly sneaking into a female hostel at the Skyline University, Kano.

Its Public Relations Officer, Ibrahim Idris-Abdullahi, disclosed this in a statement on Friday in Kano.

He said that NSCDC operatives attached to critical national assets, on March 10, arrested the suspect while sneaking into the female hostel of Skyline University situated in Nasarawa GRA, Kano.
