Banditry: Turji Bello unleashing mayhem – Ex-Sokoto gov, Bafarawa raises alarm
Former Sokoto State Governor, Attahiru Dalhatu Bafarawa, has raised the alarm over the activities of notorious bandit leader, Bello Turji.
Bafarawa claimed that Turji and his men have been launching attacks and causing mayhem in communities along the Zamfara- Sokoto axis.
In an interview with RFI Hausa, the former governor called for government intervention.
“If an individual like Turji would unleash such mayhem, and disrupt movement in our communities, then it calls for action. Government should rise up to the challenge,” Bafarawa said.
Turji recently threatened thunder and brimstone if his relatives detained were not released by January 1, 2025.
“I will begin 2025 by killing the people of Shinkafi. Thereafter, we will demand ransom and they will not have peace of mind. We will disrupt the peaceful order and restore conflict. If they don’t want this, they must release our people who have been arrested,” Turji warned in a video.
