Aliyu, who served between 2007 and 2015, would be arraigned for five billion Naira scam and abuse of office during his administration.
Mr Philip Ayuba, NSCDC Commandant, disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Minna.
He said that the measure was to avoid any breakdown of law and order before and after the court sitting.

“We will deal ruthlessly with any person or group of people trying to tamper with the peaceful coexistence of the residents.”
