In the fight against insurgency in Zamfara State, joint security forces, including the Security Intelligence and Militia Joint Task Force, have reportedly neutralized three notorious bandit kingpins.
The operation, which took place in Tidibale and Gangara villages of Isa and Sabon Birnin local government areas on Friday, resulted in the elimination of Kachillaha Mati, Jammo Bak, and an ex-police personnel identified as Kachallah Yada, along with several other terrorist fighters.
According to security analyst Zagazola Makama, Jammo Bak was particularly notorious and wielded significant influence, even forcing the community to confer upon him a chieftaincy title. Meanwhile, Kachallah Yada, a former police officer, played a pivotal role in training bandits in weapons handling and illicit arms trafficking.
The elimination of these three terrorist leaders marks a significant victory for security forces and is perceived as a substantial setback for banditry in Zamfara State. It underscores the effectiveness of the state government's stance to eschew negotiations with bandits and instead employ forceful measures to tackle the menace.
The deployment of the Civilian Joint Task Force, locally known as Askarawa, has proven to be a game-changer in the fight against banditry. Their intimate knowledge of the terrain and the bandits' operations has greatly facilitated military and security operations, making it increasingly difficult for the bandits to operate with impunity.
The pressure exerted on the bandits through coordinated military, air, and ground offensives has forced them into a corner, leading to desperate attempts to seek negotiations, as evidenced by videos circulated on social media platforms.
While the Nigerian Army has yet to release an official statement regarding the operation, the successful elimination of these high-profile bandit leaders represents a significant step forward in restoring peace and security to Zamfara State.
Update: Security Intelligence, in joint efforts with Militia Joint Task Force, have neutralized 3 bandits kingpins in the North West on April 26, 2024.
