Troops from the Joint Task Force Northwest have eliminated notorious bandit commander, Kachallah Buzu and several of his fighters in Zamfara State.
Zagazola Makama, a Lake Chad Basin counterterrorism and insurgency expert, disclosed this in a post on his X handle on Friday.
Makama said that the operation, which took place on the night of September 12, in Mayanchi village, followed an ambush laid by the military after intelligence reports on the terrorists’ movements.
The security expert stated that he was informed by intelligence sources that the ambush led to the neutralization of numerous bandits, including their leader, Buzu.
“In addition to the significant loss of life among the insurgents, the troops seized 30 motorcycles and a large cache of weapons, further crippling the group’s operational capabilities.
“The success of this operation was a significant victory in the ongoing efforts to combat banditry in the Northwest region,” he said.
