The individuals declared wanted are: Abu Khadijah, Abur Rahman, Dadi Gumba, Abu Yusuf, Musa Wa’a, Usman Kanin Shehu, Ibrahim Suyeka, Ba Sulhu, and Idris Taklakse.
The declaration comes amid intensified military operations in the region, where the armed forces have been working to counter terrorist threats and safeguard national assets. Recent efforts have seen significant successes, including the foiling of multiple terror plots, the elimination of 192 terrorists, and the arrest of 341 others in just one week. In addition, troops recently rescued three kidnapped victims in Benue state, underscoring the military’s commitment to combating insecurity nationwide.
This move also follows the commendation from the Ministry of Defence to DHQ for securing the release of an abducted health worker and her nephew, reflecting the broader campaign to restore stability in affected areas.
The DHQ urges citizens to provide any information that may aid in the apprehension of these individuals, as efforts to secure peace and stability in the North East continue.
