The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has sentenced Muhammad Sani, an associate of Danranmi, a notorious bandit who supplies arms and ammunition to kidnappers and bandits, to 20 years imprisonment.
Delivering judgement on Monday, July 13, 2026, Justice Emeka Nwite convicted Sani, who was arrested and prosecuted by the Department of State Services (DSS), for concealing information that could have led to the arrest of Danranmi.
Justice Nwire sentenced Sani to a 20-year jail term without an option of fine.
The judge ordered that the sentencing must run concurrently beginning from January 11, 2023, the date of Sani’s arrest.

The DSS had preferred a four-count charge bordering on terrorism-related offences against Sani.
The offence, according to the DSS, is contrary to Section 26(1) of the Terrorism (Prevention and Prohibition) Act 2022 and punishable under Section 16(1)(b) of the same Act.
