An official statement by the Army revealed that troops arrested suspects Ifeanyi Godwin and Uche Onuoha in Anambra State. The duo, suspected members of IPOB/ESN, were apprehended with firearms, ammunition, and fetish items. Further investigations uncovered their ties to criminal activities and their use of proceeds from kidnapping to fund operations.
In a crackdown in Oyo State, troops raided the residence of suspected kidnapper Bello Chikidawoje, recovering weapons and ammunition hidden within an animal’s cage. Efforts are ongoing to dismantle his criminal network.
Meanwhile, in Katsina State, troops responded to a distress call about terrorists blocking a road, forcing them to flee and leaving behind incriminating evidence. Another operation in Kankara LGA resulted in the neutralization of a terrorist, preventing a potential attack on commuters from the village market.
These successful operations underscore the dedication of Nigerian security forces in combating crime and safeguarding communities nationwide. Citizens are encouraged to continue supporting the troops to enhance their operational efficiency.
