Enugu State Governor, Peter Mbah, has commended intelligence and security agencies in the state for nabbing three members of a notorious kidnap gang responsible for the August 2, 2026 attack on St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Inoyi-Affa, in Udi LGA of the state. A joint operation by the Department of State Services (DSS), the Army, Police, Enugu State Forest Guard, and others, led to a gun battle with the suspected kidnappers. One suspected member of the kidnapping gang was neutralized, while the security team recovered four AK-47 rifles and a cache of ammunition. The governor made the commendation on Monday night after visiting the state DSS headquarters to see the arrested suspected kidnappers. You can’t commit these crimes in Enugu State and get away with it.
