Troops of the “Operation Whirl Stroke” said they have so far killed 145 bandits, arrested 223 others while also recovered a total of 194 weapons in Nasarawa, Benue and Taraba States.
He added that their exercise has reduced crimes and criminality to its barest minimum, insisting that they would continue to monitor the three states to ensure safety of lives and properties. “The interplay of economic activities among these three different tribes along the River Benue valley is the cause of the crises we are facing across these three states,” Major General Yekini said.
Major General Yekini further disclosed that their operation was not limited to military action but that they are also engaged in military/civilian activities in the belief that some of the lingering crises being faced across the three states cannot be solved by the military alone.
