In a daring operation, the Joint Task Force (JTF) in APA Local Government of Benue State has successfully foiled a kidnapping attempt and arrested Fulani rape suspects in Odugbo. This remarkable feat was achieved through a collaborative effort between the men of the MOPOL 80 SQUADRON and the Nigerian Army, with the support of the Chief Security Officer of the Local Government, Comrade Adam Ogwola Ochega, Executive Chairman of APA Local Government.
The operation, which was facilitated by Ochega's commitment to social issues and his daily assurance of safety for all citizens of APA Local Government, resulted in the rescue of a rape victim and the apprehension of the perpetrators. This achievement underscores the effectiveness of the joint patrol efforts and the dedication of the security operatives in maintaining law and order in the area.
Ochega's leadership has been instrumental in intensifying the focus on social issues in the local government. His daily assurance of safety has sent a strong message to the citizens of APA Local Government, reassuring them of his administration's commitment to protecting lives and properties.
The Council Boss has commended the collective effort of every community in APA and the security agents who have worked tirelessly to ensure the success of this operation. He acknowledged the crucial role played by the Nigerian Police Force in the arrest and prosecution of the suspects, highlighting the importance of collaboration between security agencies and local communities.
The suspects have been transferred from the APA division to the state CID for further investigation and prosecution. This swift action demonstrates the commitment of the authorities to ensuring justice is served and perpetrators are held accountable for their actions.
As the Chairman of APA Local Government, Ochega has assured the citizens of his continuous response to security issues, emphasizing his administration's dedication to addressing the concerns of the people. This operation serves as a testament to the effectiveness of the joint efforts between security agencies, local governments, and communities in maintaining peace and security in the region.
