For a moment I thought when writing my previous reply about writing that the suggestion that you had been playing with Nitdroid was off-mark. Glad I didn't

Yes, remove that folder.
# rm -rf /root/and

[ Thanks @pichlo, well spotted! :]

Even though I have no experience with Nitdroid, nor do I wish to have any, I cannot believe that it requires storing stuff in the home folder of the Maemo root user. Nevertheless, if removing the folder causes problems with Nitdroid I suggest you go and complain to the Nitdroid people.
