Terrorists Kill Officer, Abduct Another In Idadu Army Camp, Nasarawa State

Terror bandits have killed one soldier and abducted another while leaving behind the motorcycle they were riding to convey themselves to Idadu Army Camp along Ibbabu-Idadu, Doma Local Government Area (LGA) of Nasarawa State.

A source confirmed that the diseased soldier was in mufti when his attackers ambushed him and kidnapped his colleague, adding that bandits always terrorise farmers, market men and women on market day at Ibbabu-Idadu, robbing them, and in some cases the raping the women.

The late soldier hailed from Gombe State and was deployed to the Idadu Army Camp in Doma.

According to the source, “the late army officer was attacked and axed by the bandits and his motorcycle thrown into the river along the road. His colleague was abducted and taken to an unknown destination.

“The ugly death of the Army officer has ignited panic in Doma and its environs including Yelwa Ediys Igbabo Idadu Opkatta Rukubu Akpanaja, Doka, Ajimaka, Okpanya as farmers no longer go to the farm.”

The military source, however, said the 4 Special Force Doma had already drafted its personnel to comb the entire area and ensure that the bandits are arrested.

Meanwhile, Nasarawa State Deputy Governor, Dr. Emmanuel Akabe, has condoled the Commander 4 Special Force Doma, Major General O.O. Soyele over the killing.

The Deputy Governor, who was at the 4 SFB Doma, described the murder of the officer as a colossal loss to the Nigerian Army and the nation as a whole and prayed that God will grant him internal rest and forgive his shortcomings.

Earlier, while appreciating the condolence visit, Major. General Soyele applauded the State government for finding time to identify with the Command, adding that the Army authorities were on top of the situation.
