Code Alpha

Alpha Team, a Nigerian rescue unit, is deployed to Maiduguri to extract the First Lady and her father from bandit territory. Disguising as local militants, they infiltrate and locate the targets but discover the bandits also hold women, children, and an elderly man. Command insists they only rescue the VIPs, but the team leader refuses, prioritizing all hostages. As bandit leader Buga initiates a countdown to execution, their cover is blown, triggering a fierce firefight. The team throws a flashbang and escapes through a window with the civilians, engaging in brutal close-quarters combat. Buga kills a man in white traditional garb, but the team overpowers and shoots him dead, finding the wounded First Lady and other hostages alive. They guide the hostages to a safety zone, where ambulances take them away. Upon return, a superior officer reprimands them for insubordination. The leader claims he alone is responsible, but the entire team is handcuffed, stripped of badges, and locked in a guard room to await a military tribunal. The leader asks about the hostages and learns they are recovering. In Code Alpha, the team's mission succeeds in saving everyone, but their defiance of orders leads to severe consequences. Now imprisoned, they face an uncertain future as the tribunal looms, highlighting the personal cost of their moral stand.
