On 17 November 2024, security agencies during a snap operation at Kwanan Fulani in Jos South LGA of Plateau State, arrested a notorious gunrunner who was conveying arms and ammunition to Farin Lamba in Jos South LGA of Plateau State. 

 During the operation, one fabricated rifle, one AK-47 magazine, 15 rounds of 7.62 mm (Special), one knife and one motorcycle were recovered from the suspect.

The suspect is in custody making useful confessions to aid further operations to apprehend the collaborators of the criminals. 

Barely two hours later on the same day, security agencies at the same Kwanan Fulani in Jos South LGA of Plateau State intercepted another group of 4 gunrunners. 

 A search on the criminals led to the recovery of one AK-47 rifle; one fabricated AK-47 rifle, one round of 7.62 mm (Special), three motorcycles and one Jackknife. 

 The arrested suspects and recovered items are in the custody of security agencies for interrogation. 

3 Division/Operation SAFE HAVEN is committed to ensuring the security of lives and property within the Joint Operations Area in line with operational mandates. 

 Well-meaning members of the public are requested to continue to provide security agencies with timely intelligence to aid in ridding the area of criminal elements.
