They should not spare any of them. Just send them to meet their God. I believe their behavior does not align with the true teachings of Islam.

Is it not the same Alhaji, Sheikh, Mallam Bello Turji who has been Turban many times and dines with Matawalle, the Minister of Defence? Why leave the fire 🔥 to be chasing smoke? Apologise if I am wrong, but if not, it just shows that fighting insecurity is a mere drama. Arresting the messengers (foot soldiers) while dinning and rewarding the commanders is a window dressing. May God help us all. Amen 🙏🏾.

Bello Turji confirms negotiations to end hostilities, blasts cleric Asada By: Zagazola Makama Notorious bandits kingpin, Bello Turji, has released a new video message confirming that negotiations are ongoing with him to end violence and insecurity in parts of Zamfara and neighbouring states. In the video, which surfaced online on Thursday, Turji said the negotiations were aimed at fostering lasting peace to allow farmers and herders coexist peacefully and go about their livelihoods without fear of violence or harassment. “What we want is peace — peace that will enable Fulani herders and Hausa farmers to live without fear or oppression,” Turji said in Hausa language. The terrorist commander, however, launched a scathing attack on his staunch critic, Sheikh Murtala Bello Asada, an Islamic cleric who had recently dismissed reports of any negotiations between the terrorist leader and government representatives. Turji accused the cleric of deliberately misleading the public. “You sit in the hall (mosque) surrounded by people and on social media saying there are no talks. If you are brave, come and lead the security forces to arrest me yourself since that is what you always preach,” he said. The Federal Government and Zamfara State authorities are yet to officially confirm the ongoing negotiations, though previous efforts at dialogue with bandit leaders in the North West have been marred by setbacks and public criticism. Bello Turji is regarded as one of the most dangerous terrorist leaders in Nigeria’s North West, accused of masterminding mass killings, kidnappings, and attacks on security formations across Zamfara, Sokoto, and Katsina States.

Bello Turji is trending because the bandit kingpin has launched mass attack to control Eastern region of Sokoto State, seizing villages, kidnapping and ordering immediate evacuation. He personally led the attacks. Which is causing confusion, as Nigerians thought the he had been klled by the Nigerian Army. Actually, the Nigerian army never confirmed the elimination of Bello Turji. Instead, it’s his close associates who have been eliminated over the years as Bello has remained in hiding since his emergence in 2011. On Saturday, Bello raided Bargaja village killing at least 3 persons. Yesterday night, he violently led a raid in Tidibale village, Isa LGA, reportedly ordering evacuation within 24hrs, kidnapping women and girls in mass, as he strategically expands his dominance in Sokoto east. This comes just days after Katsina state government reached agreement to release 70 bandits, in exchange for abducted hostages. Last month, Bello’s top lieutenant Kallamu Buzu, was eliminated in an ambush by the NA. Bello reportedly swore to avenge him and intensify his attacks. Turji operates banditry within Niger, Zamfara and Sokoto states, imposing tax on communities. In December 2021, bello ambushed a full bus in Sabon Birni and set it ablaze burning all 30 occupants alive. A month later, he attacked a community and killed 200 people in Zamfara as he battled to gain and recover territories from rival bandit leader, Dogo Gide. Nigerian are wondering how a civilian is able to set up a parallel government in a state and walk freely. While students who protest against it are arrested, Ekpoma. Fun Fact: Boko Haram’s Shekau wasn’t killed by the Nigerian Government.. He committed suicide with an explosive vest, after losing a battle with his replacement from terrorist headquarters, who felt Shekau was becoming politically involved.
