One of these was an attempt to vandalise a pipeline, which led to the death of the vandals when they tried to detonate it. The quick response of security operatives on March 16, 2025, stopped the attack.”
He further stated that the police also raided a kidnappers’ den in the state and arrested eight suspects at the location.
