Otiki was the General Officer Commanding (GOC), 8 Division, Sokoto, until his redeployment to the Administrative Staff College of Nigeria, ASCON.

Military sources newsmen that the Maj. Gen. is being held in the Officers Mess until he can be moved to Abuja for questioning over the sources of the N400 million.
