Bandit Kingpin Falando Slain in Zamfara-Kebbi Blitz

In a decisive blow to rampant banditry, the notorious warlord Falando met his end in a fierce encounter with troops of Operation Hadarin Daji (OPHD) in Bukkuyum Local Government Area of Zamfara State.

Falando, a wanted criminal mastermind, along with numerous accomplices, fell to the relentless pursuit of the military, marking a significant victory in the battle against insecurity in the region.

A defence intelligence source, speaking to @prnigeria, confirmed the successful operation, highlighting Falando’s pivotal role in orchestrating kidnappings and terrorizing communities along the Zamfara/Kebbi axis.

The warlord’s stronghold, nestled in the dense forests near Anka LGA, served as a hub for nefarious activities, causing anguish in villages like Gwashi, Nasarawar Burkullu, and Wasagu.

“Today, Falando met his waterloo,” declared the source, attributing the triumph to the gallantry and strategic prowess of the 1 Brigade Commander, Brig-Gen S Ahmed, and his vigilant troops.

The operation, characterized by meticulous planning and swift execution, left no room for mercy as every sighted terrorist met their fate.

The comprehensive nature of the mission reflects a resolute commitment to eradicating criminal elements, ensuring the safety and tranquility of the affected communities.

With Falando’s demise, a significant chapter closes in the ongoing efforts to restore peace and stability to Zamfara and Kebbi, underscoring the unwavering determination of the security forces to confront and neutralize threats to civilian well-being.
