Christopher was wielding a modified fire extinguisher that was filled with gasoline. The would-be weapon had the word "flame thrower" hand written on it. There is no evidence that the device was ever functional as a flame thrower.  Christopher did use it to douse his ex-girlfriend with gasoline. However, a scuffle between Christopher and her current boyfriend ensued. During the fight, Christopher struck the victim in the head with a flashlight, causing a laceration to his head. Christopher also bit the victim on the stomach and left teeth marks.  While Christopher was engaged by the current boyfriend,...

 TROOPS OF OPERATION ENDURING PEACE FOIL MULTIPLE KIDNAPPING ATTEMPTS, RESCUE VICTIMS IN PLATEAU AND KADUNA STATES


​In a series of decisive  operations conducted over the last 48 hours, troops of Operation ENDURING PEACE have successfully foiled multiple kidnapping attempts, rescued several victims, and launched aggressive manhunts for fleeing criminal elements across Plateau and Kaduna States. These swift interventions underscores the unwavering commitment of the military to maintaining security and guaranteeing the safety of commuters and residents within Operation ENDURING PEACE Joint Operations Area.


​At Riyom Local Government Area of Plateau State, troops of Sector 6 deployed in Sopp District responded to reports of suspected kidnappers who blocked the highway along the Hawan Kibo–Rafin Sayin axis at approximately 12:30am of 5 June 2026. Upon arrival at the scene, the tactical team discovered an ash-coloured Honda vehicle with registration number APP-93CF abandoned in the middle of the road. Troops immediately launched a thorough search and rescue operation in the surrounding bushes. This rapid response led to the successful rescue of 6 kidnapped  passengers. The rescued individuals revealed that they had boarded the commercial vehicle from Lafiya, Nasarawa State, and were bound for Jos. While these victims are safe, the driver of the vehicle remains missing, and troops are maintaining an active search to locate and rescue him.


​Simultaneously, troops of Sector 5 operating in Bokkos, also recorded another victory against criminality in Bokkos Local Government Area of Plateau State. Responding to an urgent distress call from Faggem Village on June 5, 2026, troops swiftly mobilised and foiled an ongoing abduction attempt, as the operational pressure forced the criminals to abandon their targets and fled into nearby forest. The chase led troops to successfully rescue a Pastor and his wife from the clutches of the kidnappers. The couple, who sustained injuries during the initial assault by the criminals, were promptly evacuated by the troops to Bokkos medical clinic for treatment, while also initiated a manhunt to track down the fleeing suspects.


​In a related development, troops of Sector 7, deployed at the Ungwan Gora in Sanga Local Government Area of Kaduna State, at the early hours of Saturday 6 June 2026,

responded to reports of suspected terrorists blocking the highway between Rafi Tagwai and Angwan Dariya. Upon arrival, troops discovered that the terrorists had kidnapped some passengers traveling in a commercial vehicle. Troops recovered 8 empty cases of 7.62mm special ammunition at the scene and immediately plunged into the adjoining forest on a rescue mission. The pursuit yielded immediate results as troops rescued 2 injured passengers while efforts are currently ongoing to rescue other kidnapped occupants of the vehicle. The rescued passengers were swiftly evacuated to a nearby hospital in Fadan Karshi District for medical attention. 


Operation ENDURING PEACE  reassures the general public that it will not relent in its ongoing deliberate efforts and decisive operations to rid the highways and communities of criminal elements. Citizens are urged to remain vigilant and continuously provide timely and actionable intelligence on criminal elements activities to security agencies.
