In a significant triumph against banditry and terrorism, troops from Operation Hadarin Daji have neutralized four notorious bandit leaders in Zamfara State, including Ibrahim Nagure, Lawali Dodo, Kadiri, and Jambaleri.
Among them, Halilu Sububu, a key figure behind numerous violent acts in the North West, was also eliminated. His death marks a crucial turning point in the fight against armed criminality in the region.
Additionally, military forces captured another wanted terrorist kingpin, Hosseini Osman, in Plateau State.
He confessed to organizing several deadly attacks, including a recent assault on Ganawuri village in Riyom Local Government Area. Information provided by Osman led to a successful operation in Kyaram village, Kanam LGA, where several kidnapped victims were rescued.
Further operations across the North West and North East, including a raid on fleeing Boko Haram terrorists in Gwoza, Borno State, and a raid on a suspected hideout in Kaduna’s Gobarawa Forest, resulted in significant casualties among the terrorists and the recovery of weapons and motorcycles.
The elimination of these high-profile bandit leaders and terrorists, especially Halilu Sububu, is a major step forward in improving security in Zamfara State and other affected regions.
