In a remarkable triumph for Nigeria’s security forces, the fight against banditry in the North-West has taken a decisive turn.
With strategic backing from the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) and coordination by the service chiefs, over 10 notorious bandit warlords have been neutralized in the past month alone.
Among the high-profile targets feeling the heat are notorious bandit leaders Bello Turji and Baleri, now on the run as the crackdown intensifies.
Security sources are confident that it’s only a matter of time before they are brought to justice.
This victory marks a turning point in the government’s relentless pursuit of peace in the troubled region.
