Brigadier General Kingsley Chidiebere Uwa, Commander of the 6 Brigade, Nigerian Army, and Sector 3, Operation Whirl Stroke (OPWS), has confirmed a notable decline in incidents of kidnapping, banditry, arms trafficking, and communal clashes across Taraba State.
Speaking on Tuesday while receiving participants of the Nigerian Army Resource Centre (NARC) Strategic Management and Policy Studies Course 7/2025, Uwa credited this progress to the unwavering dedication of his troops, whose efforts have significantly contributed to restoring peace and stability in the region.
Highlighting the Brigade’s achievements over the past year, he emphasized the successful deployment of both kinetic and non-kinetic strategies in tackling insecurity. He also showcased recovered arms and ammunition from various operations, commending his personnel for their resilience and commitment.
Representing the Director General of NARC, Major General Garba Ayodeji Wahab (Rtd), Major General Dahiru Sanusi, who led the visiting team, expressed gratitude for the warm reception. He noted that the study tour aimed to bridge the gap between theoretical security studies and practical field operations, particularly in assessing the military’s impact on Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the state.
The tour, according to reports, will include visits to key locations across Taraba, providing participants with firsthand insights into the security situation and the military’s role in fostering a stable environment for economic development.
