How NAF Special Forces Kill Notorious Terrorist Kingpin in Kaduna

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Special Forces have eliminated Mustapha Abdullahi, a notorious terrorist kingpin, and five members of his group in Kaduna State’s Igabi Local Government Area.

While acting on an intelligence report, the Special Forces were deployed to the Sabon Gida forest, where they engaged the terrorists in a firefight, resulting in the neutralization of the entire group.

The operation yielded the recovery of weapons, including five Dane guns, a locally fabricated sub-machine gun, and live ammunition, as well as assorted charms and personal items.

The Director, Public Relations and Information, NAF, AVM Edward Gabkwet, in a statement on Sunday, said the special forces were deployed from the 413  Force Protection Group

Gabkwet said that their mission was with likely intent to kidnap, harm or kill innocent civilians.

According to him, after making contact with the terrorists who were on motor cycles, the terrorists immediately opened fire on sighting the Special Forces, but were met with superior fire power by the troops.

The troops eliminated all the terrorists and recovered five Dane guns, a locally fabricated sub-machine gun, and live ammunition, as well as assorted charms, lighters, sim cards and cell phone cases.

“Efforts by the troops to rid Igabi, Birnin Gwari and environs of criminals and their activities remain ongoing.

“Troops have also been commended and urged to intensify ongoing efforts to safeguard lives and property,”  the statement  said.
