Troops from the 6 Brigade of the Nigerian Army have successfully disrupted a significant logistics supply chain supporting terrorists in Taraba State. The operation, conducted around Bunka Village in the Lau Local Government Area, led to the arrest of Musa Inusa, identified as a key logistics supplier for the terrorist group.
According to a statement from Captain Olubodunde Oni, the Brigade’s Spokesman, Inusa is believed to have been providing essential supplies and materials to terrorists operating in the region. His arrest is expected to severely impact the operational capabilities of the group. Recovered items from Inusa include a jackknife, N2,460, several wraps of a substance suspected to be Indian hemp, and other illicit drugs.
In a related development, the Brigade also apprehended three bandits in Jeb-Jeb, a border community with Plateau State in Karim Lamido Local Government Area. The suspects—Adamu Abubakar, Mohammed Bello, and Musa Adamu—are believed to be involved in a series of criminal activities, including armed robberies, kidnappings, and violent assaults on local communities.
Captain Oni emphasized that these arrests are part of a broader initiative by the 6 Brigade to tackle the escalating inter-state criminality within its area of operations. Preliminary investigations have revealed that the suspects have been active in the state for several years, and efforts are ongoing to apprehend additional members of the criminal syndicate
