Troops of the Nigerian Army deployed for Counter Terrorism Counter Insurgency operations in Zamfara State raided the hideout of a terrorist kingpin, Yellow Janbros.
During the raid, the terrorists engaged the troops in a fierce gun battle, which led to the death of a terrorist.
Troops also recovered several weapons and equally destroyed Janbros’ enclave.
According to a post on Tuesday by the Nigerian Army on X, Janbros has been responsible for kidnappings and other acts of terrorism in parts of north-western Nigeria.
The post read, “Nigerian Army troops deployed for Counter Terrorism Counter Insurgency operations have raided the den of a notorious terrorist kingpin known as Yellow Janbros at Dangunu Village in Maru Local Government Area of Zamfara State, resulting in the elimination of a terrorist and recovery of the firearm.
“The troops overpowered and dislodged the terrorists and neutralized one of them. The gallant troops also recovered one AK- AK-47 rifle, one AK-47 Magazine, 30 rounds of 7.62 mm special, and one hundred and fifty bags of stolen grains. The terrorists’ enclave has been completely destroyed.
“The Nigerian Army remains committed to mitigating security challenges and will leave no stone unturned to rid the nation of terrorists and insurgents.”
