The Nigerian Army has reportedly arrested a suspected bandit known on TikTok as “Sule Yellow,” who allegedly gained notoriety for flaunting ransom money on social media.

According to reports, the suspect was intercepted by troops while returning to a forest hideout after allegedly collecting ransom from the family of a kidnapped victim.

Sule Yellow reportedly built an online following on TikTok, where he was said to post videos displaying cash believed to be proceeds from kidnapping activities.

He had also been linked in reports to a network of armed groups operating in forest corridors, though official confirmation of these claims has not yet been provided.

Further details are expected as security agencies provide updates on the arrest and possible prosecution.
