The Director, Army Public Relations, Brig.-Gen. Onyema Nwachukwu, in a statement on Wednesday, said a Toyota Camry car with registration number JAL 492 AA was used to convey the weapons.
Nwachukwu said the troops deployed at Forward Operating Base Amana attempted to stop the vehicle at their checkpoint but the driver evaded the checking and zoomed off. He said the driver’s recalcitrance compelled the troops to open fire on the vehicle’s tyres to immobilise it. According to him, a thorough search conducted on the vehicle revealed that it was conveying 72 Improvised Explosive Device chargers, 121 Dynamite Liquid, 200 rounds of 7.62 mm and 82 rounds of 7.62 mm ammunition.“Members of the public are please urged to continue to support our troops with credible information that will lead to stemming the tide of insecurity across the country,’’ he said.
Just vehicle number stated in the report. No driver name mentioned. How can a car be driving itself to Obudu hills.
And, not a single suspect arrested?
The Fulanis terrorist is expanding their wings. Everyone should be careful.
