By: Zagazola Makama

In another blow to banditry in Zamfara State, two notorious bandits, Kachalla Idi Mai Randa and Ya’u, have been killed in separate encounters with rival bandit faction of Dogo Geide.

Intelligence sources told Zagazola Malama that Kachalla Idi Mai Randa, a known bandit leader responsible for multiple attacks in the region, was killed in an ambush laid by rival bandit Dogo Geide on Sunday evening.

The attack occurred following a series of violent confrontations between the two factions. Idi Mai Randa had previously led an attack that resulted in the killing of Gide’s boy, prompting him to vow revenge.

Idi Mai Randa’s death comes days after the killing of Ya’u, another notorious bandit who had been previously captured in Tsafe Local Government Area.

Ya’u, a close ally of Idi Mai Randa, had been implicated in numerous attacks and was believed to be in possession of significant weaponry. Although Idi Mai Randa denied any involvement with Ya’u’s weaponry, it is now confirmed that both he and Ya’u have met their Waterloo, with the story of their deaths reported from their emclave early today.

The troops of Operation Fansan Yanma in collaboration with it Air Component as well as federal security forces, continue to make significant strides in dismantling bandit in their hideouts in the region.

The joint effort has already resulted in the deaths of several high profile bandit leaders and the capture of important assets.

Military Repels retaliation attack in Tsafe after Killing Notorious Bandit Kachalla Jafaru

By: Zagazola Makama

The troops of Operation Fansan Yamma in collaboration with Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) successfully repelled a retaliatory attack by bandits in Bilbis town, Tsafe Local Government Area of Zamfara State, in the midnight of Monday.

Intelligence sources told Zagazola Makama that the attack followed the death of a notorious bandit leader, Kachalla Jafaru, who was killed during a recent military encounter with the terrorists in Bilbis.

Jafaru, known for his expertise in kidnapping for ransom and terrorizing communities, including Hayin Gada and Kunchin Kalgo. He was a brother to the infamous bandit leader Ado Aliero, who was on the top wanted list of the Nigerian military.

Sources revealed that after Jafaru’s death, Fulani bandits in the area mobilized to attack Bilbis in retaliation. However, security operatives were alerted and launched a counter-operation at about 11:30 a.m., engaging the bandits in a fierce gun battle that lasted until 4:00 p.m.

The military, with support from CJTF members, successfully thwarted the attack, neutralizing several bandits, injuring others, and recovering numerous motorcycles and weapons.

Eyewitnesses reported seeing the security operatives transporting five bodies of bandits on motorcycles and one in a vehicle, along with other confiscated items.

Jafaru’s reign of terror had significantly disrupted several communities in Tsafe, with repeated incidents of kidnappings and extortion. His demise is seen as a major breakthrough in efforts to restore peace to the area.
