Bandit Leader, Turji Demands ₦50m To Allow Farming In Zamfara, Niger Communities by adenigga(op): 9:33pm On Jun 09, 2025
Bandit leader, Bello Turji has reportedly threatened farmers around Zamfara state this rainy season.


According to security expert, Bakatsine in a post on his X handle, Turji said farmers can only ‘peacefully’ go to their farms after paying N50m tax.

This ransom is said to affect residents of Tsalaken Gulbi from Fakai village, Shinkafi LGA, Zamfara State. It extends up to Qaya near the Niger border.

It has become almost tradition for farmers around troubled areas in the North to pay a sort of safety tax to bandits before farming and during harvest.

However, previous reports confirmed that some farmers still lose their lives, even after paying the tax, while other times, they lose their farm produce to the bandits or both.

Guess these are the bastards the govt of the day choose to recycle as repentant deradicalised and rehabilitated terrorists? Continue the idiocy.

He is a state actor...when the northerners are ready, they will force their leaders to answer their questions. For now, they can continue enjoying the fruits of the seeds they have sown... grin

To think this is the man those talkative army officials called "dead man walking." Bunch of sissies without honour. Only thing they know is how to bully unarmed civilians.

And we have a government. If this were to happen in a sane clime, this bastard would have been arrested or killed by now. Here in Nigeria, all what our leaders know is to loot and jump from one polity party to another for their selfish gains

Oga stop feeling insecure

I'm tired. I want to end it all. I feel like am just living on borrowed time. Have been seeking financial assistance, yet no one wants to help my plight. This suffering is too much for me. My baby has not eaten since morning. I don't have money to buy her nutribom or even pap. What more do I have to live for? I can't do this anymore. My babys father rejected us even before i gave birth to her. I don't have any choice. Please help us if you can. My account details is on my profile please click my name to check it if you can. May the good lord bless you.
You cannot be begging on every post. Sell your phone to buy the pap. Better still go to construction site to carry block. I can bet you, you'll get more than enough to feed your baby.
