The Nigerian Army on Thursday 25 August 2022 says, during an Operational cum inspection tour in Kaduna State, the General Officer Commanding (GOC) 1 Division Nigerian Army Major Genenetal Taoreed Lagbaja accompanied by a team of operational commanders and operatives rescued three kidnap victims .

Army Spokesperson, Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu in a Statement said, the GOC and his team rescued the victims from a group of armed kidnappers in Manini village, along Pole Wire - Birnin Gwari road, Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna state.

Nwachukwu explains that the Kidnappers had abducted the victims and were taking off, when they were confronted by the GOC's team. The hot exchange of fire that followed subdued the kidnappers, compelling them to scamper in disarray with gunshot wounds into nearby forest, abandoning their abductees.

He noted that the rescued victims, comprising two adult males and an elderly woman have been conveyed to Kaduna, where they are currently receiving medical attention.
