Presenting the achievements of “Operation Sting”, the state commissioner of Police, Mustapha Dandaura, said in their recent operation, security operatives were able to uncover a camp in the forest of Ogu/Bolo local government area of the state, where arms and ammunition, including General Multipurpose Machine Gun and a Rocket Launcher were recovered.
Dandaura said: “We got intelligence report last Friday that criminals were stockpiling arms and ammunition in a forest in Ogu/Bolo local government area. We took the fight to them.
“The arms were well concealed and we dug the ground to recover them.
“We don’t know their motive because a kidnapper does not need GPMG; a kidnapper does not need a Rocket Launcher.
“We will investigate and get those involved in the supply of the arms,” Dandaura said.
