A video has shown the moment brave Nigerian troops gave bandits a hot chase in a face-to-face battle and rescued some victims kidnapped by the hoodlums.
In the video, the troops once again proved their mettle as they left their vehicles and pursued the bandits on foot with massive gunfire, killing some of them in the process.
In the encounter, the surviving hoodlums abandoned their motorcycles, rifles, and, kidnapped victims, and took to their heels given the superior firepower of the troops.
The video, which was published by a security analyst cum information website, Zagazola on Thursday afternoon did, not however, state when or where the incident took place.
The encounter is once again a testament to the determination and bravery of the Nigerian military to continually deal with subversive elements and criminals in the country to make society a better place.

Meanwhile, Kanyi Daily reported that the Nigerian Army has dismissed as false, a viral video circulating on social media showing stage managed capture of the Nigerian Army Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC) by Turji Bello, one of the infamous terrorist leaders in North West Nigeria.
In a strongly-worded statement issued on Thursday afternoon by its Spokesman, Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu, the Nigerian army described the clip as an “unsubstantiated and apparently fabricated video.”
