Troops of the 63 Brigade, Nigerian Army, have successfully rescued four kidnap victims during a raid on a kidnappers’ hideout in Ugbolu Forest, Delta State.

The rescue operation according to a statement by Emmanuel Onoja, Assistant Director Army Public Relations took place on Monday, December 9, 2024.

Acting on credible intelligence, the troops launched the operation and engaged the kidnappers in a fierce gun battle.

The rescued victims received necessary medical attention and support before being reunited with their families.

Reports indicate that the victims had been held captive in the forest for several days, with the kidnappers demanding significant ransom amounts for their release.

The swift and coordinated action of the troops thwarted the criminals’ plans and brought relief to the victims and their families.

The Army urged members of the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities to security agencies promptly.

“The 63 Brigade remains committed to eliminating all forms of criminality in Delta State and ensuring the safety and security of its citizens.”
