The Nigerian Army has raided a suspected criminal hideout in Rivers State, recovering arms and ammunition during an intelligence-led operation carried out by troops of Sector 4, Joint Task Force South-East, Operation UDO KA.
The operation, conducted on July 23, 2026, targeted a forest enclave at Awara Community Waterside in Ohaji/Egbema Local Government Area and along the Omoku–Ogbaku–Ndoni axis of Rivers State.
According to the Nigerian Army, the hideout was suspected to have been used by criminal elements as a base for planning kidnappings and launching attacks against security personnel and civilians.
In a statement shared on its X handle on Friday, the Army said the operation was part of its ongoing efforts to dismantle criminal networks and restore peace across the region.
