In a daring operation, troops of 63 Brigade Nigerian Army following an intelligence report on the activities of suspected kidnappers conducted a raid on the kidnapper's den in Ugbolu forest Monday 9 December 2024. The gallant troops engaged the kidnappers in a fierce gun battle, over powering and compelling the kidnappers to abandon their captives, as they scampered into the thick forest.
The operation resulted in the rescue victims, identified as Mr Victor Ekele, Mr Ehuike David, Mrs Nkechi Amowah and Engr Dean Okolo. The rescued victims are safe and receiving necessary medical care and support, while troops are on the tray of the fleeing kidnappers.
We urge the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities ontime to security agencies, as we continue in our untiring efforts to rid the state of all forms of criminality.
