Military: Bandit leader Bello Turji, dead man walking
Turji is a notorious terrorist operating in the North West region of Nigeria, particularly Zamfara, Sokoto, and Niger States.
The Director of Defence Media Operations, Maj.-Gen. Edward Buba, while briefing newsmen on the operations of the military in 2024, said it was important to realise that terrorists exist for the sake of war and must be destroyed for the sake of peace.
Buba added that the troops had sustained pressure on the terrorist enclaves, hideouts, and strongholds as an incentive to speedily defeat the terrorists and hastily end the war.
