In continuation of the ongoing military operations codenamed OPERATION LAFIYA JAMAA, aimed at flushing out criminal elements from Taraba State, gallant troops of 6 Brigade Nigerian Army/Sector 3 Operation WHIRL STROKE (OPWS) have successfully neutralized 3 bandits, destroyed several camps, and recovered arms and ammunition in a daring clearance operation conducted on 5 April 2025 in Karim Lamido Local Government Area of Taraba State.

Acting Assistant Director, Army Public Relations, Captain Olubodunde Oni in an official statement disclosed that the operation, which targeted suspected bandits’ hideouts, saw troops advancing to Achalle where they thoroughly cleared the general area before projecting further force to Chibi. 

On arrival at Chibi, the troops made contact with the bandits, who began fleeing upon sighting the advancing forces. In the engagement that ensued, 3 bandits were neutralized, and several makeshift camps used by the criminals were destroyed. Troops also recovered 2 motorcycles, 1 AK-47 magazine, and 13 rounds of 7.62mm special ammunition from the scene.

Additionally, the troops conducted a thorough combing of the Dutsen Zaki and Achalle axis where over seventy criminal camps have been dismantled in recent weeks. No human activity was observed during this latest sweep, indicating the sustained success of previous operations.

While commending the troops for their resilience and tactical success, the Commander 6 Brigade Nigerian Army, Brigadier General Kingsley Chidiebere Uwa, reassured the good people of Taraba State that there will be no safe haven for terrorists and criminal elements in the state.

He urged residents to remain vigilant and law abiding while continuing their lawful daily activities without fear or intimidation.

General Uwa further encouraged members of the public to continue providing timely and credible information to security agencies, noting that such collaboration remains vital to supporting ongoing operations and enhancing the safety and security of our communities.
