Troops of 33 Artillery Brigade have intercepted a vehicle conveying military-related items along the Ningi–Shamaki road in Ningi Local Government Area of Bauchi State.
Security sources told Zagazola Makama that the interception occurred at about 9:00 a.m. on Nov. 7, 2026, when troops stopped and searched the vehicle.
The search led to the discovery of a bag containing a desert boot, camouflage clothing and bandoliers.
Sources said that before the search, a female passenger had alighted from the vehicle under the pretext of easing herself in a nearby bush but fled after the items were discovered and did not return.
Other passengers reportedly claimed that the bag belonged to the fleeing woman.
The driver and the remaining passengers were taken into military custody for further investigation and necessary action.
