Soldiers intercept millions of Naira allegedly being transported to bandits

-

 

Nigerian soldiers have intercepted a vehicle with millions of naira alleged to be transported by bandits. Despite the claims, no arrested bandit was spotted in the video and evidence of cash was not also revealed. Spotted in the vehicle also, were crates of eggs.

People have reacted to the video, claiming that it could be a ransom by the family of a kidnapped victim and as such the soldiers should tread with caution. It’s no longer news, the attacks and kidnaps done by these “bandits”. Just recently the former MD of an agricultural bank was kidnapped and a ransom of about N100 million was allegedly paid for his release.

Ukraine says its military is putting up fierce resistance to Russian forces trying to advance through the eastern Donbas region, inflicting significant losses on Moscow's armies. The head of the Luhansk region military administration, Serhiy Hayday, says Ukrainian fighters are putting up stiff resistance. “We restrain the enemy on the border of Luhansk region and Donetsk region — the occupiers are suffering significant losses, as they themselves admit,” Hayday said. “Every day, the Russians receive an order to advance further, but they do not always carry it out, because the losses in personnel are very significant. “During the assault of Lysychansk alone, the enemy lost thousands of dead and wounded.
