Troops of 6 Brigade Nigerian Army and Sector 3 Operation Whirl Stroke, in collaboration with Sector 2 Operation Safe Haven, have conducted a series of operations targeting bandit hideouts and gunrunning syndicates in Taraba and Plateau states.

In a clearance operation on March 22, troops raided Achalle, a border community between Karim Lamido Local Government Area of Taraba State and Wase Local Government Area of Plateau State.

According to the Acting Assistant Director, Army Public Relations, Captain Olubodunde Oni, in a Sunday statement shared on X, troops “made contact with bandits and successfully dislodged them.”

A motorcycle was recovered, and forces advanced to a second location identified as a key bandit camp.

“At this location, with over 70 huts, troops encountered resistance but forced the bandits to flee,” Oni said.
