Less than a week after the inauguration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Nigerian troops in Zamfara State, have sustained fighting patrols leading to the elimination of bandits, the rescue of kidnapped victims, and the recovery of weapons and animals.

PRNigeria gathered in the latest operation, Nigerian troops of Forward Operation Base in Bakura, tackled fleeing bandits and attacks on villagers.

A military source involved in the operation disclosed that the troops on fighting patrol received credible information of armed bandits attacking Rogoji Village and Sakida-Janbako Village in Bakura and Maradun Local Government Areas of Zamfara State respectively.

Consequently, the troops went on the pursuit of the bandits with a heavy volume of fire, and in the process, at least five bandits were neutralized.
