Troops of 12 Brigade, Lokoja, under the command of Brigadier General Karim Sidi, have reportedly carried out a special operation in a remote forest near Iluke, Kabba/Bunu Local Government Area of Kogi State, to exhume the body of notorious bandit kingpin, Ibrahim Battijo, for autopsy. The operation was coordinated by the Office of the National Security Adviser as part of ongoing efforts to establish facts surrounding Battijo’s reported death. Battijo was said to have been killed during a failed mass abduction attempt targeting WAEC students in Iluke on June 10, 2026. Security sources say the exhumation and autopsy process are aimed at confirming his identity and gathering further intelligence that may assist ongoing security operations in the area. The development marks another significant step in the continuing fight against banditry and criminal networks threatening schools, rural communities, and vulnerable residents in parts of Kogi State. The message is clear: those who target innocent students and communities will be tracked, confronted, and brought to justice. Troops remain committed to protecting lives, dismantling criminal hideouts, and restoring confidence across affected communities.
