Notorious armed bandits’ kingpin, Jabbi Ruwa, and four of his foot soldiers have been arrested by troops of Forward Operating Base, FOB, Gwadabawa, and Rakka, in Sokoto State.

This is just as PRNigeria gathered that troops of Operation Hadarin Daji yesterday cleared bandits’ enclaves and thoroughfare routes at Sangeko, Kabugu Lamba, Kaboro and Mairairai villages in Zamfara State.

A credible military source with knowledge of the latest operation by troops in Sokoto and Zamfara, told PRNigeria that: “Acting on credible information about a bandit kingpin named Jabbi Ruwa and some of his members were taking refuge in Dambala village in Sokoto state, troops of Forward Operating Base (FOB) Gwadabawa and Troops of Raka in Sokoto state, in conjunction with local guides immediately mobilized to Dambala village yesterday.
