Troops from the 6 Brigade of the Nigerian Army, in collaboration with Sector 3 of Operation Whirl Stroke, have successfully dislodged bandits in Taraba and Benue states.
On Friday, the troops carried out a coordinated clearance operation in Akahagu and China villages within the Ukum Local Government Area of Benue State. The operation, dubbed ‘Operation Golden Peace’, is designed to restore peace and security to the region.
Brig. Gen. Kingsley Chidiebere Uwa, Commander of the 6 Brigade, praised the troops for their courage and determination during the operation.
The operation also targeted Ikayor village, where the troops clashed with bandits associated with a notorious criminal, Akiki Utiv, also known as ‘Full Fire’. The bandits were forced to retreat after the troops deployed significant firepower.
During the operation, the troops recovered a red Toyota Corolla, a motorcycle, military camouflage trousers, and a Beretta pistol, among other items.
The military has reassured the residents of Taraba and Benue states of its unwavering commitment to upholding peace and security in the region.
