Troops from the Joint Task Force Northwest have neutralized notorious bandit leader Kachallah Buzu, along with several of his fighters, in Zamfara State.
Zagazola Makama, a counterterrorism expert in the Lake Chad Basin region, revealed this in a post on his X handle on Friday.
Makama reported that the operation, carried out on the night of September 12 in Mayanchi village, followed a military ambush after receiving intelligence on the movement of the terrorists.

In addition to the casualties, troops also confiscated 30 motorcycles and a large cache of weapons, dealing a significant blow to the group’s operational strength.
