2. Additionally, troops kinetic operations resulted in the rescue of several other hostages in terrorists captivity in the North Centre threatre of operations. However, it the operations were mostly futile with regards the above abducted persons. All the same, at about 1700hrs of 30 October 2024, troops through none kinetic efforts secured the release of the abducted Dr Ganiyat Popoola and the above named teenager.

3. Though the details of their release by the terrorists remains classified due to ongoing operations. It is significant to state that their release is indicative of overtures by several terrorists leaders and their combatants to surrender to troops. It would be recalled that similar situations is ongoing in the North East, and it is therefore, not uncommon in war situations and a welcomed development .

4. Overall, more details about the development will follow in due course. Nevertheless, these terrorists have a window of opportunity to surrender or be killed in the battlefield. On the whole,ending the insecurity plaguing our nation requires a collective effort of everyone and not just military action.
