The Publisher of National Trail Newspaper, Inuwa Bwala, was on Tuesday evening arrested by some policemen in Abuja.
Eyewitnesses said Bwala was picked up along with his driver shortly after arriving the premises of his office by policemen, some of who wore the uniform of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad.
He is the spokesman of the Ali Modu Sheriff faction of the Peoples Democratic Party.
Efforts to find out the real cause of his arrest proved abortive as the policemen contacted kept sealed lips.
Journalists were however able to confirm that Bwala was taken to the SARS office in Abuja.
He was seen urging one of his friends to help buy his drugs for him, an indication that he is on special drugs prescription.
