Troops neutralise notorious bandit kingpin, another in Zamfara

According to the Defence Headquarters, the troops of Operation Hadarin Daji have killed a prominent bandit leader named Bada in the Zamfara hamlet of Yar Tashar Local Government Area.

This was announced in a statement released on Monday in Abuja by Maj.-Gen. Musa Danmadami, Director, Defence Media Operations.

Danmadami claimed that the bandit boss was taken out in retaliation for an attack on farmers who were gathering their harvest.

He claimed that on October 13, Bada also raided the market in the village of Yar Tashar and killed some farmers there.

In addition, the army, according to Danmadami, responded to a bandit attack on Gamraki hamlet on November 6 in the Kwatarkwashi District of the state's Bungudu Local Government Area and freed the hostages.

He said the troops also neutralised one bandit while others fled with gunshot injuries and recovered arms and ammunition in the encounter.

“Troops recovered one motorcycle, some weapons and valuables.

“The military high command commends troops of Operation Hadarin Daji and encourages the general public to avail troops with credible and timely information on criminal activities.
