Nigerian Troops Rescue Three Kidnapped Victims In Kaduna
|
The Nigerian Army says it has rescued three kidnap victims at Manini village in Kaduna State.
The victims were rescued along Pole Wire-Birnin Gwari Road, Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
The rescued victims comprised two adult males and an elderly woman, who according to a statement by the Director Army Public Relations, Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu, have been moved to Kaduna.
The victims are currently receiving medical treatment, the statement added.
Nwachukwu disclosed that the victims were rescued during an operational cum inspection tour in Kaduna on Thursday, August 25, 2022, by the General Officer Commanding (GOC) 1 Division of the Nigerian Army, Maj-Gen. Taoreed Lagbaja, who was accompanied by a team of operational commanders and operatives.
The statement partly read, "The GOC and his team rescued the victims from a group of armed kidnappers in Manini village, along Pole Wire - Birnin Gwari Road, Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna state.
"The kidnappers had kidnapped the victims and were taking off when they were confronted by the GOC's team. The hot exchange of fire that followed subdued the kidnappers, compelling them to scamper in disarray with gunshot wounds into nearby forest, abandoning their abductees.
"The rescued victims, comprising two adult males and an elderly woman have been conveyed to Kaduna, where they are currently receiving medical attention."
