About a week after one of the most-notorious terrorists in the North-West, Buharin Yadi, was killed by troops of 1 Division, one of his powerful cohorts, Daushe, has also been felled by the bullets of troops.
Daushe met his Waterloo on Eid-el-Kabir day, Sunday, June 16 when troops of Sector 6 of the Nigerian Army, in its effort at ensuring terror-free Sallah celebrations across the bandits-troubled North-West, carried out a decisive operation across Giwa LGA, Kaduna State.
To carry out the successful patrol, several platoons of the troops deployed across the general area on the security duty were married up at Sabon Layi, from where they advanced to Kidandan area.
As they advanced closer to Kidandan, troops sighted the terrorist, who was later identified as Daushe, riding his motorcycle at a high speed, in his effort to flee from the patrolling troops.
As the troops gave him achit pursuit, Daushe abandoned his motorcycle and fled to nearby settlement at the outskirts of which troops killed him while trying to escape to the surrounding bush.
Items recovered from the killed terrorist were two sacks of corn flour and one mobile phone.
Troops, vibrating with a high morale, have scaled up and sustained the patrol to guarantee terror-free Sallah celebrations for the residents of the LGA.
