Operation UDO KA: Army Arrests Gunrunner, Disrupts Arms Network in South-East

Under Operation UDO KA, the Nigerian Army and partner agencies arrested a suspected gunrunner in Ukwa East LGA, Abia State. Initial investigations show he was linked to a Bayelsa-based intermediary supplying arms to criminal groups. In Imo State, troops inspecting a burnt vehicle on the SPDC–Etekuru road came under attack. They secured the scene, recovered two burnt vehicles and two bodies, and evacuated the remains for further procedures. A joint raid in Oguta LGA led to the arrest of five suspects at a suspected cultist hideout. One detainee has agreed to assist security forces in locating a hidden armoury. These operations highlight ongoing efforts to dismantle criminal networks and improve safety across the region.
