Mr. Tamba stated he was engaged in other meetings and lacked detailed information about the operation. He indicated he was awaiting further instructions from high command and could not provide a timeline for when more information would be available.
The unusual timing and nature of the operation have raised questions and concerns among the public and media. The situation remains fluid, with more details expected to emerge as the authorities clarify their actions. Stay tuned for updates as this story develops.
