Troops neutralise three bandits in Kaduna, recover arms

Uba Sani

Troops conducting clearance patrols have neutralised three bandits along the Gonna Rogo-Eka axis of Kajuru council.

Commissioner, Ministry of Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, in a statement yesterday, said the troops made contact with bandits. After an exchange of fire, three of the criminals were neutralised.

He said: “The troops scoured the immediate vicinity and recovered two AK-47 rifles, four AK-47 magazines and 81 rounds of 7.62mm ammunition.

“The governor of Kaduna State, Uba Sani, thanked the security forces for the feedback and commended the troops, under the leadership of the General Officer Commanding, 1 Division Nigerian Army, Major General M. L. D. Saraso, for intensifying efforts to ensure a peaceful Sallah celebration for citizens.

“The troops will continue special fighting patrols within the general area and other locations of interest.”
