Abducted Nigerian Army Captain ‘Disarms Kidnap Gang Member, Rescues Self, Others In Kogi’

An Army officer, Captain J.O. Abalaka (N/15198) has regained freedom after he reportedly successfully disarmed a member of the kidnap gang that abducted him in Kogi State.

SaharaReporters learnt that Abalaka was abducted last week along Ekpoma/Okene/Lokoja Road.

The incident reportedly occurred while Abalaka was reporting to his new unit at the operational headquarters of the Maiduguri Command in Borno State from 29 Battalion, Port Harcourt.

While driving in his Toyota Corolla with registration number LSR 22 AJ along with his dog, the gunmen intercepted and abducted him along the road, a military signal obtained by SaharaReporters revealed.
Other travellers were also abducted by the gunmen.

Displaying rare boldness and bravery, the signal revealed that the Army captain attacked the gang of kidnappers and disarmed one of them who had an AK-47.

According to the signal, he subsequently engaged the other kidnap gang members and set other victims free, along with his dog.

He reportedly recovered one locally fabricated Barretta pistol, one magazine and 5× 9mm ammunition.

It read, “AT ABOUT 301530HRS CAPT JO ABALAKA (N/15198) WHILE ON PASS FM 29 BN PORTHARCOURT TO RPT TO HIS NEW UNIT IN MCCC THEATER COMD MAIDUGURI WAS KIDNAPPED BY UNKNOWN GUNMEN ALONG RD EKPOMA-OKENE-LOKOJA WHILE DVR IN HIS TOYOTA CORROLA CAR REG NO LSR 22 AJ ALONG WITH HIS DOG(.)

Only impressive thing I've read from a Nigerian army.

Nigeria got potential to be a great country mehn.

Just the North and leaders dragging everyone behind.

I can truly tolerate Yorubas and their hate as they too are progressive.

North is just another planet of backwardness

Here you go…

Coming online to stigmatise a part of the country unprovoked but you will still be the one to accuse others of hating you.

What exactly makes you think that you Igbos are better than anyone?

That is bravery and it should be celebrated. Mods kindly front-page this.

This will make a good movie.

Remove fear, these terrorists are dust.

Gun imposes fear on people. How can 4 armed gang keep 20 people hostage?

Attack the vampires in a group and their guns are gone. There is no guarantee you will be freed after ransom, so escape or die trying.

Thank God for his life, what a brave officer of the Nigerian army. That Captain will go places. I pray he doesn't fall into the hands of BH or ipob terrorists, and if he does, he will show them Shege banza.

I'm stating facts.

North is dragging everyone behind.

In a perfect world no Northerner should near Nigerian presidency. They got 0 thing to offer the country.

They ruled since military and democracy yet have nothing to show for it other than few wealthy selected few while their majority languish in abject poverty and illiteracy
