“The cache of arms and ammunition, as well as the vehicle used in conveying them, have been fully recovered.”

In the same vein, the Army said: “In Sokoto State, troops on patrol in the general area of Matalawa village of Isa Local Government Area of the state have rescued kidnap hostages, who were abducted and taken into the forest while on transit.

“Responding to a distress call, the troops moved swiftly to the location, where they engaged the kidnappers in a gun duel, leading to the extrication of the hostages.

“The rescued hostages have been reunited with their families.
