Troops arrests Abuja Daddy, Calabar militants’ hitman

Admin September 18, 2016

abuja-daddyTroops of 13 Brigade, 82 Division, Nigerian Army, have in a coordinated operation arrested a suspected high ranking militant kingpin Mr.  Victory Benjamin (aka Abuja Daddy and  G3) and three others.  The kingpin was arrested at Saint Joseph Hospital, Ikot Ene junction, Akpabuyo Local Government Area of Cross Rivers State while attempting to collect ransom from one of their kidnapped victim’s relations.

In a related development, troops of the same formation have also  arrested 3 militants with locally made pistol and some cartridges while robbing victims around Refugees Camp at Efut Isigi in Bakassi Local Government Area, Cross Rivers State.

Meanwhile,  troops have cordoned off the residents of the most wanted militant kingpin,  Alias G1 still at large, as already the arrested militants known as “G2” and “G3” are providing useful information that would assist the military to track   other criminals in the region.
