Troops of the 6 Brigade, Nigerian Army, have achieved a major breakthrough in the fight against insecurity in Taraba State, neutralising four armed militia members during a coordinated operation in Karim Lamido Local Government Area.
In a dramatic twist, soldiers also arrested a police officer who is allegedly linked to the activities of the armed group terrorising communities in the area. His arrest followed credible intelligence suggesting possible collaboration with the militia.
(Authorities stress that investigations are ongoing to establish the extent of his involvement.)
Military sources say the operation forms part of sustained efforts to dismantle armed networks undermining peace and stability across Taraba. The successful raid is being hailed as a significant step toward restoring security and boosting public confidence in the region.
Further investigations are currently underway, with security operatives expected to brief the public as developments unfold.
