Troops of 6 Brigade Nigerian Army/ Sector 3 Operation Whirl Stroke (OPWS), in collaboration with troops of Operation Safe Haven, have neutralized two bandits and recovered about 1,000 cattle in Taraba State and neighbouring Plateau State.
Acting on credible intelligence, troops responded swiftly to a report of armed bandits mounted on approximately 30 motorcycles who had crossed from Plateau State into Taraba State.
The criminal elements launched a cattle rustling operation targeting a Fulani settlement near Jebjeb Village in Karim Lamido Local Government Area (LGA) of Taraba State.
The operation code-named Operation Lafiya Jama’a is billed to reinforce the fight against criminality in Taraba and neighbouring states to ensure safety for all residents.
