The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Ebonyi State has dismantled a hideout used by a criminal syndicate operating along the Ebonyi-Benue border. A joint team from the Command's Intelligence and Investigation Department and the Commandant's Special Squad conducted the operation, which followed weeks of intelligence gathering.
During the raid, they recovered several weapons and dangerous items, including an AK-47 assault rifle, a pistol, and tactical combat knives. Commandant Francis Nnadi warned criminals to leave the state, particularly ahead of the general elections, and vowed the state would be secured from all forms of crime during and after the elections. A manhunt is underway for the fleeing suspects.
