It was gathered that the policeman, together with the CJTF volunteers and hunters were on initially suspected to have been kidnapped by ISWAP terrorists at Gubio in Borno State.

But the Nigerian military swiftly launched a rescue operation for the policeman and local security volunteers after the ISWAP attack.

He further disclosed that the ISWAP elements thereafter fled towards Gadei Village in Nganzai town.

“Beside the abduction, the terrorists also went away with one White Hilux patrol vehicle,” the source said.

However, an intelligence operative of the Nigerian military told PRNigeria that all the security agents abducted escaped when the army troops were engaging the terrorists in a gun battle at Nganzai.
