Troops of Operation Safe Haven on Thursday, May 8 (correct the date), rescued a kidnap victim, Bala Musa, from a terrorists haven at Bulli village along the Bauch/Plateau states border.

The troops, responding to a distress call by locals, swooped on the the terrorists in a decisive operation to clear the adjoining communities along the border of all terrorists and other criminals.

They swooped on the Bulli high ground along the Gindiri (Plateau) - Lere (in Tafawa-Bakewa LGA) road along the border in swift response to a distress call and tip by a local who had sighted one of the terrorists buying food items at a nearby village, Bulli.

The Tunri high ground, Bulli and other adjoining communities have constituted dreaded flashpoints of the gunmen and other criminals terrorizing the Bauchi/Plateau neighbouring communities.

Acting on the tip by the local, troops, which first cleared Tunri high ground, diverted to Bulli, where they mowed down the terrorists and save Bala Musa, a citizen of Kano State, who was enroute back home.

His prompt rescue saved enabled his family to save a whooping N3 million they had collected, and were already on their way to pay as ransome to his kidnappers fir his release.
