TROOPS of Operation Whirl Stroke have reportedly uncovered arms and ammunition at the palaces of district heads of Cha (Mue Ter Cha), His Royal Highness, Chief Utambe Adzer, and Chief Teran Kwanghbo, all from Ukum Local Government Area of Benue State.

It was gathered that while the former was arrested, the latter escaped with AK-47 rifles through the back door of his palace when soldiers stormed the palace on Saturday.

Military source said that troops stormed the palaces of the monarchs based on intelligence report.

Chief Kwaghbo was said to have escaped when he heard that his counterpart had been arrested and the soldiers were told that he was in possession of six AK-47 rifles allegedly being used for perpetrating crimes in both Benue and Taraba states.

“Troops swooped on the houses of two persons discovered to be district heads in Ukum Local Government Area of Benue State on Saturday and some arms and ammunition were recovered,” military source said.

The military source disclosed that one AK-47 rifle, one magazine, 20 rounds of 7.62mm ammunition, one locally made mortar tube and one vehicle were recovered from Chief Utambe Adzer.

However, a local source disclosed that some soldiers were sighted at the palace of Mue Ter Cha.

The source said, “The next moment, we saw that the military has arrested the chief. We also saw them bringing out some arms which we heard were discovered in his house.

“They equally razed the round hut located in the palace suspected to be housing the weapons and some criminal elements.”

When contacted, Force Commander of OPWS, Brigadier General Clement Apere declined to comment, saying he couldn’t speak on operations yet to be concluded.

Troops keep raiding people that are defending themselves against Fulani terrorists but never raid the terrorists.


Then the media will spin the narrative and make people fighting for their self preservation look like the criminals.

I served in the middle-belt, these local mostly Christian villages are left to their fate when the terrorist Fulani attack them. Some of them have to get weapons and fight back. As a corper I remember leaving for weeks to Abuja because there was a planned attack and the villagers were getting ready to defend themselves.

For the tribal military to go on this venture, it means they have probably successfully repelled attacks and when this happens the treasonous tribal military commanders will step in and help the terrorists.

And there are military personnel from these places where their people are being slaughtered and wiped out playing to the gallery to get promoted. When they are finally out of service, they'll find their voice and start wailing on these activities.

It's another one.
When APC see you as a threat, they do all sorts just to tarnish your image and intimidate you in the process.
Why didn't they say that HRM somasulted from the roof of his palace and escaped with 8 AK-47 guns?
Nigeria is now a comedy central.

You people said we should defend ourselves.
Why the arrest again?

However, You can never hear them raid an emir's palace no matter the intelligence report.

These villagers should prepare for fulani /bandits attacks soon because this is what usually happens whenever the military disarms an area to vulnerability.

Who knows. These might actually be weapons to protect themselves.
With what Benue went through in the hands of the maurading Fulani herdsmen, it will be foolish of Benue folks not to set up defence mechanism.

All tribes should prepare themselves for the eventual showdown

The Hausa Fulani that chased police and govt people with AK 47 in Enugu state because they are close to government house, how far, Nigerian army? Una no dey raid those kain place too abi?

When are they going to tell us the real sponsors of boko haram and Fulani militia?
