BLOODY: Troops Take Down Additional Bandit Kingpins in Zamfara, Capture Prime Suspect in Plateau

In a decisive blow against armed banditry, troops from Operation Hadarin Daji have eliminated four notorious bandit kingpins in Zamfara State, according to PRNigeria reports.

PRNigeria reports that the eliminated criminals identified as Ibrahim Nagure, Lawali Dodo, Kadiri, and Jambaleri—were taken down following the successful operation that culminated in the neutralization of Halilu Sububu, a prominent orchestrator of terrorist activities in the North West.

Simultaneously, military forces apprehended another wanted terrorist kingpin, Hosseini Osman, in Plateau State. Osman was captured in Ganawuri village, located in the Riyom local government area, where he confessed to masterminding numerous deadly attacks across the state, including a recent assault on Ganawuri village that resulted in the tragic loss of innocent lives. He also revealed his involvement in a local kidnapping syndicate linked to a series of abductions.

Leveraging intelligence obtained from Osman, military troops swiftly mobilized to Kyaram village in Kanam local government area, successfully rescuing several kidnapped victims.

In parallel operations, PRNigeria gathered from Defence Intelligence source that troops launched a strategic ambush against fleeing terrorists from the Sambisa Forest heading toward the Mandara Mountains in the Gwoza local government area. This operation resulted in significant casualties among Boko Haram fighters, with a substantial cache of arms and ammunition seized.

In Kaduna State, troops executed a raid on a suspected terrorist hideout in Gobarawa Forest, situated in Birnin Gwari. The operation sent criminals into disarray, leading to the recovery of five AK-47 rifles, 16 rounds of 7.62mm (Special) ammunition, and five motorcycles left behind by the fleeing terrorists, as confirmed by a military defense source.

Earlier reports indicated that Sububu had been a significant player in fomenting violence in Zamfara until his recent elimination on Thursday. A reliable intelligence source confirmed that military efforts culminated in the removal of the infamous Halilu Sububu and numerous bandits in an aggressive clearance operation. Troops also confiscated lethal firearms, ample ammunition, and motorcycles used by the terrorists.

Investigations by PRNigeria revealed that Sububu was implicated in the death of a drone pilot and operative of the Department of State Services (DSS) approximately two months ago and had been responsible for the abduction and killing of several civilians in Zamfara.
