Troops of the Nigerian Army have rescued six kidnapped victims in Kaduna State. The victims were rescued during a clearance patrol conducted by the soldiers around the Kangon Kadi general area in Chikun Local Government Area of the state.
A statement by the State Commissioner of Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, in that regard said: “According to operational feedback, the troops, under the Operation Forest Sanity, embarked on a clearance operation from Damba to Kangon Kadi, and fired on identified bandit locations around the Kangon Kadi Forest, Labi and the Udawa River. Bandits fled from the Kangon Kadi area under the superior firepower of the troops, leaving behind six kidnapped victims at their camp. The victims were rescued by the troops.
“The Governor of Kaduna State, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, received the report with gratitude, and commended the troops for sustaining valiant efforts across several fronts. Citizens will be updated on further developments.”
