In a significant operation, the Joint Security Task Force has successfully apprehended multiple individuals associated with Muritala Ajaka, a prominent figure within the Social Democratic Party (SDP). The raid, conducted in Kogi east, aimed to dismantle criminal networks posing a threat to public safety and resulted in the recovery of a substantial cache of ammunition.
Sources close to the operation disclosed that the arrested individuals are believed to be key members of a gang operating under the directives of Muritala Ajaka. Despite this success, the Task Force is actively pursuing other high-profile individuals connected to the case, with Ahmed Atta, purportedly a high-ranking member and potentially the leader of the criminal group, still at large. Authorities have issued a nationwide alert and seek public cooperation to assist in his capture.
The Task Force’s spokesperson emphasized the significance of the operation, stating, “This is a major breakthrough in our relentless effort to ensure peace and security. We will continue to pursue all leads until we bring all involved to justice.”
The recovered ammunitions, now in law enforcement custody, are undergoing analysis for further leads. The Task Force reassured the public that necessary measures are being taken to prevent further criminal activities linked to this network.
This operation aligns with ongoing efforts by Nigerian security forces to combat crime and uphold public safety. Authorities encourage citizens to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities to the police. The Nigerian government remains steadfast in its commitment to maintaining law and order and ensuring the safety of all citizens.
