Operatives of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) have neutralised three suspected bandits terrorising the northern part of the country.

The police said this was in continuation of the NPF’s offensive against violent crimes and armed criminal syndicates that threaten Nigeria’s peace and stability.

Force spokesperson, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said sequel to a series of coordinated tactical operations conducted in July, 2025, across Taraba, Plateau, Adamawa, Nassarawa, and Niger States, operatives of the Force Intelligence Department- Intelligence Response Team( FID-IRT) neutralised the three bandits during several armed encounters.

“The bandits, who attempted to escape upon sighting operatives, were fatally subdued after intense gunfire exchanges, during which they abandoned their weapons and fled into the surrounding terrains with various degrees of gunshot injuries,” Adejobi stated.

He further noted that these operations led to the discovery and recovery of ten AK-47 rifles—weapons linked to various criminal activities, including kidnappings, armed robberies, gunrunning, and cattle rustling.

The police further stated that follow-up tactical operations are ongoing to track, identify, and apprehend fleeing members of the syndicates already indicted to be masterminds of deadly attacks on communities in the affected states.

 

Meanwhile, the inspector-general of police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun has again reaffirmed the Force’s unyielding resolve to uphold national security, as the Nigeria Police Force will continue to sustain and intensify intelligence-led operations to dismantle all criminal enterprises.

 

The Force said the police remain resolute in its constitutional duty to protect life and property across Nigeria and citizens are encouraged to continue supporting the police with actionable intelligence by reporting any suspicious activity to nearby police formations or via official channels.
