The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Policy, Sunday Dare, has reacted to public curiosity over the operational details behind the rescue of 38 persons abducted from Christ Apostolic Church, in Eruku, Ekiti Local Government Area of Kwara State. He recently revealed that keeping the details surrounding the rescue secret was intentional.
In a post shared via his X account, he disclosed that citizens should not forget that the process of freeing kidnapping victims is very complex.
According to him, he can only confirm that the process of rescuing the CAC members involved several security agencies, local intelligence and detailed planning.
Dare stated that the most important thing is that the abducted Nigerians have since regained their freedom.
“The process of securing or freeing victims of kidnappings is often a complicated one involving several steps and multiple security personnel, even local intelligence.
The ultimate goal is to free the captives and of course apprehend the terrorists.
The full details of such operations are never disclosed in full. It’s a security matter,” he wrote.
He further hailed the efforts of security personnel involved in recent rescue operations in Niger and Kwara states, assuring Nigerians that those responsible would soon face justice.
Dare concluded by saying that the Federal Government will keep doing everything possible to secure lives and properties.
“We salute recent efforts by our security team in the Niger and Kwara incidents and know that perpetrators and the kidnappers will soon be arraigned to face the law of the land,” he added.
