Troops of Operation Enduring Peace (OPEP) have rescued a kidnapped victim, identified as Mr Courage Ujah, after confronting his abductors at Maza Hills in Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State.
Security sources said the rescue operation took place at about 5:20 p.m. on November 3, 2026, following a report of Ujah's abduction on November 1.
The sources said troops of Sector 1 and Sub-Sector 12, while conducting search-and-rescue operations, established contact with the kidnappers at Maza Hills.
The kidnappers reportedly abandoned the victim and fled into the surrounding bush after being overwhelmed by the troops' superior firepower.
The soldiers subsequently rescued Ujah and reunited him with his parents at Gwash Village in Jos North LGA.- By: Zagazola Makama
