The Southwest security network codenamed ‘Amotekun’ in Oyo state on Tuesday disclosed that the 170 northern travellers arrested are not terrorists and will be released to the police.

It was learnt that suspicion arose when 20 of the migrants took to their heels when they saw the Amotekun personnel.
