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.

Troops raid criminal hideout, rescue kidnapped victim in Kaduna
By: Zagazola Makama
Troops of the Joint Task Force, Operation Enduring Peace, have raided a criminal hideout in Kaura Local Government Area of Kaduna State, neutralising several criminals, rescuing a kidnapped victim and recovering arms, ammunition and motorcycles.
Security sources told Zagazola Makama that the operation was carried out on Tuesday following credible intelligence on the activities of criminal elements operating within the area.
During the raid, the troops reportedly engaged the criminals in a gun duel, resulting in the neutralisation of four suspects, while others fled the scene with possible injuries.
Items recovered from the hideout included one fabricated rifle, five rounds of 7.62mm special ammunition and two motorcycles.
Preliminary findings indicated that the neutralised suspects were members of a criminal syndicate responsible for attacks along the Ganawuri–Manchok corridor.
In a related development, the troops were said to have responded swiftly to information on the abduction of a young woman, Miss Immaculate Samuel, who was kidnapped on the night of Jan. 13 at Kajim Village, also in Kaura LGA.
The troops mobilised and pursued the kidnappers, leading to another exchange of gunfire during which three of the suspects were neutralised, while the victim was rescued unharmed.
The rescued victim was subsequently debriefed and reunited with her family.
Security forces said troops had continued to dominate the general area in order to track down and apprehend other members of the criminal group and restore normalcy to affected communities.
