Men of the 32 Artillery Brigade of the Nigerian Army, Akure, Ondo State, on Wednesday, September 20, stormed some bushes in the Akoko area and arrested seven suspected kidnappers in their dens.
The soldiers were said to have gone after the hoodlums who had their dens located in Akokoland, following reports of kidnappings, especially of travellers on Akure-Owo and Kabba-Auga-Akunnu expressways.
