The kidnapped Army officer following the attack on the Nigerian Defence Academy in Kaduna, Major CL Datong, has been rescued from his abductors.
It would be recalled that bandits attacked the military institution on August 24, 2021 and in the process abducted Major Datong after Lt Cdr Wulah and Flt Leutenant CM Okoronwo were shot dead, and a 2nd Leutenant Onah was injured.
“The operations were being conducted based on several leads received from various sources regarding the abductors and likely locations the officer was being held,” he said. Colonel Idima further said the operations which have been sustained since the abduction of the officer proved quite successful and led to the destruction of several identified bandits’ camps in the Afaka-Birnin Gwari general area of Kaduna State and neutralisation of scores of bandits particularly, in the late hours of September 17, 2021.
“The troops arrived at a camp suspected to be the location where Maj CL Datong was being held. At the camp, the troops exchanged fire with the bandits and overwhelmed them with superior fire. In the process, the gallant troops were able to rescue the abducted officer,” he said.
What know is that the family paid ransom. You like to take credit for finished jobs.
