Brave Nigerian Army troops have successfully rescued 21 kidnapped victims in a major operation against bandits in Kwara and Kogi States. The victims, some held hostage for over four months, were freed through coordinated efforts between the 12 Brigade Lokoja and the 22 Armoured Brigade Ilorin as part of Operation FANSAN YAMA.
Led by Major General CR Nnebeife, the troops ensured the victims received urgent medical care and relief support. The General Officer Commanding pledged relentless operations to rid the area of criminals, promising zero tolerance for bandits in the division’s territory.
The Nigerian Air Force’s air support and security agencies’ collaboration were instrumental in this success. The rescued are recovering well and will soon reunite with their families.
