The Kaduna State Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, has said troops of the Nigerian Army repelled bandits at the Fondisho general area, along the Kaduna – Zaria road, killing two.
The commissioner said the troops, while responding to intelligence, ambushed the bandits at a location and overpowered them.
The statement read in part, “On entering the area, the bandits sprang the ambush and came under intense fire as they were stoutly repelled by the troops. Two of the criminals were thus neutralized.”
“The Kaduna State Government received the feedback with satisfaction, and praised the troops for their swiftness in responding to intelligence reports.”
