Confirmed: Notorious bandit leader Kachalla Yellow Danbokolo and 173 of his fighters have been killed by the Shinkafi Volunteer Forces. Another major win for the brave vigilantes fighting terror in Northwest Nigeria.

Why are most notorious bandit leaders either killed in clashes with rival gangs or by vigilantes , not by security forces? I am only asking, not discrediting the efforts of our gallant troops.

Massive respect to the Shinkafi vigilantes who launched a successful attack and wiped out dozens of terrorists. These heroes deserve national recognition and a medal. Rewarding them will inspire more volunteers across states to rise and flush out these bloodthirsty killers.

Internet has been shut down 3 times in Kaura, Shinkafi, Zurmi (Zamfara) and Isa (Sokoto) to block bandits from coordinating. The crackdown was led by CJTF from Borno, backed by Zamfara govt and security agents. A serious joint operation is underway.

According to my local sources, the attack was led by CJTF from Borno in collaboration with the DSS, backed by the Zamfara State Government. Next target on their list: Bello Turji.

Turji is mimicking late Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau. After vigilantes killed Dan Bokolo, he rushed to seek peace talks. But this is his usual tactic, apologize, buy time, then regroup and attack civilians. He uses religion as a cover, don’t fall for it.

Alhamdulillah. Kachalla Dan Bokolo is finally dead. Turji’s terror network is in serious distress over the loss of one of his closest allies.

Confirmed: Dan Bokolo was killed after a clash with Bashari Maniya , a repentant bandit who led the vigilantes to his hideout. Bokolo was shot in the leg during the fight, killed 3 before collapsing. He died 3 days later. Bashari Maniya was killed in the fight. Turji is in pain!

No one is perfect. Apologies if my tweet on the Zamfara internet shutdown was misunderstood. The operation had already happened. I am not exposing any security tactics or compromising anyone’s cover.

ChatGPT can’t tell when a mistake might mislead or cause harm. It lacks judgment. For journalists & researchers in conflict, terrorism, and security, this means AI must be used with caution, one wrong detail can distort a sensitive story or damage credibility.

Unfortunately, bandit leader Charambe killed 15 people in Kwallajiya village, Sokoto State. The community has been under siege from both the Lakurawa terror group and armed bandits, with little to no security support.

Dear Department of State Services (DSS) , clerics like this shouldn’t have a platform, online or offline. For over 5 years, he’s pushed hate and violence with no consequences. He has an extreme hatred against civilizations, democracy and humanity. People should be banned from speaking to public

Just like late Boko Haram founder Muhammad Yusuf, Muhammad bn Muhammad is now using social media to spread extremist propaganda. After failing in a mosque debate today (July 5), it’s clear he’s copying Boko Haram’s playbook. Authorities must act—ban him, deradicalize followers.

Sheikh Murtala Bello accuses top govt officials of shielding Bello Turji. In his sermon, he claimed they blocked action against Turji, sent envoys to beg him for peace talks, not to stop terror. “Who is the real terrorist Turji or those protecting him?” he asked. #Zamfara

Nigeria’s political leaders often politicize insecurity blaming ‘foreign invasion,’ stoking religious tension with talk of genocide, or turning crises into blame games when faced with strong opposition.

This is the bandit leader BABARO, who has been terrorizing the areas of Faskari, Kankara, Malumfashi, and Funtua LGAs in Katsina State. This photo was taken when he was once captured by security forces on April 6, 2024. He was later released without any charges 😭

Local vigilantes played a decisive role in the joint operation that neutralized 30 armed bandits in Faskari, Katsina. Their coordination with mobile police and military forces underscores the growing value of community-based security in rural counterinsurgency.

Sanusi, a notorious bandit leader. He is the one who has been terrorizing the Maƙera area in Dutsin-ma Local Government, as well as parts of Ɗanmusa and Safana in Katsina State, with acts of kidnapping and cattle rustling. Currently, reports indicate that he is bedridden & unwell
