TROOPS OF OPERATION FANSAN YAMMA NEUTRALIZE TERRORIST, ARREST SUSPECTS AND DISRUPT CRIMINAL NETWORKS IN ZAMFARA STATE

Troops of Joint Task Force North West Operation FANSAN YAMMA have continued to record successes against terrorists and bandits across Zamfara State. On 5 June 2026, troops of Sector 2 Operation FANSAN YAMMA on fighting patrol to Birnin Tsaba and Tsanu villages in Birnin Magaji Local Government Area made contact with terrorists at Birnin Tsaba village. Following a firefight, troops neutralized one terrorist and recovered seven motorcycles.

On 6 June 2026, troops responded to a terrorist attack at Anguwar Sarkin Musulmi village in Kaura Namoda Local Government Area. The troops engaged the terrorists, forcing them to flee into the bush. Preliminary findings revealed that the terrorists had stolen personal belongings from residents before the arrival of troops. The incident further highlights the growing desperation of terrorist elements whose sources of sustenance and logistics have continued to come under pressure from sustained military operations.

On the same day, troops responded to reports of an attack on commuters along the Kaura Namoda–Zurmi Road. Investigations showed that terrorists ambushed two civilian vehicles between Jabanda and Dauran villages in Zurmi Local Government Area. Troops secured the area, evacuated injured victims for medical treatment and have continued efforts to track the terrorists and rescue any abducted passengers.

Also on 6 June 2026, troops of Sector 2 Operation FANSAN YAMMA conducting a fighting patrol to Tudun Wada and Dan Gulbi communities in Maru Local Government Area arrested eight suspected bandits at Tudun Wada. Troops recovered seven motorcycles, communication equipment, mobile phones, power banks, military-style uniforms and other items. A structure used by the suspects was also destroyed.

In a related operation, troops on 5 June 2026 arrested the suspected recipient of recently intercepted ammunition at Tupa village in Shinkafi Local Government Area following intelligence exploitation. The suspect is in custody and assisting ongoing investigations. Operation FANSAN YAMMA remains committed to sustaining offensive operations against terrorists and bandits and urges members of the public to continue providing timely and credible information to security agencies.

If indeed there's a law or state laws passed to this effect, then I make bold to say the law(s) makes absolutely no sense!

So they are saying if I build a house and decide to rent it out to tenants whom I did background check on and there was no reason for me not to rent out the building to them. If that tenant somehow gets involved in a crime like this Adelabu sister's kidnap incident, they will demolish my building ? In what world is that fair ?

I have seen situations where Landlords try not to rent house out to Yahoo boys , but the yahoo boys build a fake profile about having a legit job and the landlord has no choice but to rent the house out to them. Now imagine EFCC raiding those guys and EFCC suddenly deciding to demolish the house because they feel the landlord is complicit....It's just unfair.

That being said, I don't know if it's just me but this demolition of the building feels like getting rid of evidence . There are rumors that some party and campaign materials belonging to Adelabu's political opps were found in that house . Why demolish the building instead of allowing forensic investigation into the whole kidnap saga?

they demolished the building they rescued adelabus sister in?
on whose orders?
in less than 24 hours?

it sounds like saraki all over again - where his connected enforcers / political thugs are engaging in armed robbery during off work periods

i can only conclude that the kidnappers day job is political thugs for prominent politicians and everyone is now doing a coverup

If we are serious every police checkpoint along that route will be sanctioned

This is the reality, with n200 to n500 per checkpoint you could be carrying live screaming human beings and they would let you pass.

Those shorts look like designer camouflage shorts oh.

Very annoying something.

Most times when I'm driving alone, once police stop me at checkpoint and they see baby car seat at the back seat they will greet me , ask "how is the baby? " and then ask me "anything for the boys? ". I just give them anything I have (be it N500 or N1000) and they will wave me to carry on.

I always have this thought :What if I'm a criminal who has dangerous weapons or even human body in my car trunk , but I disguised with that baby car seat? Is that how they will collect roger and allow me pass without doing normal police work of searching the car?

Good thing the movement was foiled o, who knows maybe the cargo is meant for bandits or even other equally terrible criminals ? Who knows what they would do with those Camouflage?

Nigeria police are very easy to fool. Most times when I no get time for their BS I go just carry my glasses for dashboard but on top eye (10/10 they never stop me). Only time I don get extensive delays na days I forget carry my glasses comot house

You con add childrens books for dashboard or back of car, or get baby carrier like you dey do, dem no go stop you lai lai.

Na boys no just dey like drive without all those serenren, if not there's a way you can arrange car to signal responsible family man and you go almost never they get reason for police to stop you.

I guess partly is because they shouldn't be on the road in the first place hence they need make some form of concession so they don't feel like they're the completely reprehensible characters they are...these concessions ends up creating a loophole for criminals.

Him mind no go gree am drill you much (If you are stopped)

Very easy to fool. They assume so much and that's why criminals get away easily on our roads.

That profiling they do is always their problem. They judge u based on how u present urself, some people even use stickers like NBA(they assume u are a lawyer, Army or Navy to avoid getting stopped by police and it works almost everytime.

Profiling is part of life and part of their work

A suit wearing or formally dressed family man looking Theflint1 will not look like a yahoo criminal (unless the crime is insider trading or corporate crimes) and will escape scrutiny versus a music blasting tattooed earing, Dada with sagging pants Theflint1

And many times they get it right.

I have heard news of 60 something year old women running drug cartels but they get away with scrutiny because they don't fit the profile of a criminal

True sha

The Nigerian Air Force carried out a devastating strike on a terrorist convoy near Cross Kauwa and Ali Sherti in northern Borno State, targeting what appeared to be an insurgent staging area used for logistics and the planning of attacks.

The operation resulted in the destruction of multiple vehicles and the neutralization of several terrorists who were attempting to regroup within the Lake Chad axis.

The mission began on June 6 when an ISR platform established persistent surveillance over a suspected terrorist enclave at Cross Kauwa. The location exhibited significant signs of insurgent activity.

During the surveillance mission, operators positively identified approximately 12 vehicles hidden beneath tree cover and observed suspected terrorists moving between concealed positions in an apparent effort to evade aerial detection. The intelligence gathered confirmed the site's role as a key operational hub, prompting the subsequent airstrike.
A follow on airstrike engaged a concentration of vehicles inside the hideout. The munition scored direct hits on four vehicles and inflicted significant damage on the target area.

Same state that kids are in captivity lol..

The type of car also matters.

Isnt this like when our police will catch a thief or kidnapper, instead of keeping him so they can extract as much informations as possible from him in order to nab his crews, they will rather shoot and end the story right there.

Is there something they are trying to hide here?

The quick demolition is suspicious.

Everything matters, Even the way you speak. the way you look, the car you drive everything builds a mental profile of you

Chief, would you say Nigeria has 2.2M Billionaires? Some dude here is arguing that to be in the top 1% in Naija you need to have asset worth 1Billion, I would think more like N100M which kinda falls flat when around half of the houses in Lagos alone are priced over N100M.

MorataFC:
I think the challenge lies in the diversity of many gods. For example, in Yorubaland alone, there are worshippers of Ogun, Oya, Obatala, Ifa, Osanyin, Sango, and many others. An Ogun worshipper will not bow to Oya goddess, while a Sango worshipper may not observe the same forms of worship associated with Obatala.

And these are just a few examples from the Yoruba people lànd ooo, I haven't even touch on the traditional beliefs of the Igbo, Hausa, and other ethnic groups. So with such diversity, it would be extremely difficult to establish a single mode of worship unless everyone willingly agreed to one, which is likely not possible.

Yea, the duplicity of the religion makes it difficult to manage when it comes to the application of the law.

BlueRayDick:
They are doing that because they know how terrible Nigerian legal/judicial system is.

The Landlord can actually sue with the case lasting at least 4 years in court. When the judge eventually pronounces judgment for the Landlord to be compensated to the tune of millions, the state government may still spend years and not pay the compensation/damages.

I remember the late Yoruba actor; Baba Suwe who was arrested by NDLEA on suspicion of drug trafficking at the airport. He was given laxative which was to make him stool the alleged drugs in his system after being detained for hours. Eventually he never stooled any drug and there was no evidence he was trafficking drugs.

He later sued the NDLEA for the embarrassment and defamation of Character. The case lasted years and he was eventually awarded about N1m by the court which is to be paid by NDLEA. Years after the case when the actor was deceased, it was discovered that he had not received the compensation before his death.

It means it is one thing to win a government agency in court and it is another thing for them to pay you as directed by the law court. Na why most people no dey bother sue government for this country.

The annoying part is that there is no court order, just wake up once day and bulldoze someone's house. I mean, even if there is an existing law, there has to be a process for the application of the law. Our lack of strong institutions is a big problem for this country. We are just winging this thing called Nigeria at this point.

BlueRayDick:
The bold is not true!

If you say Muslims are a majority in Ilorin, one can agree with you. Muslims are not majority in Osun and Oyo. There are Chirstians, Muslims and Traditional Worshippers in the Southwest. There is no state Muslims can claim to be Majority when there are adherents of the other two religions who are more than Muslims .

Are you sure? Because the statistics I came across online including a Nairaland thread were quite damning. I was seeing figures of around 60 to 65% Muslim in Oyo and 50 to 55% in Osun.

Kim Kardashian must be a demon under the sheets cause how else does she keep bagging these male celebrities. So Lewis Hamilton can't find someone younger to date it's an old hag like Kim.

From my observation, I believe a lot of women who fvck their husbands up when they move to Europe and the US had been tolerating a lot when they were still in Nigeria.

​A lot of Nigerian men are quite abusive, they won't admit this in public, but it is more common than people think.
In Nigeria, these women tolerate all forms of abuse and can't respond or leave due to the extremely conservative nature of our society, and other factors. But when they move over to the UK, for example, and the husband tries to replicate that same abuse there, the wife will respond or leave because of resentment, and also because those factors that were hindering her no longer exist.

​The point I'm trying to make is, if you get to the root of a lot of these stories, the men are abusive. I know people who took their wives abroad and have no such stories, because they were never highhanded while here.

There's a certain level people get to, and they stop caring about these things, so don't assume they're dating her because of how she perform during sex.

Many of us have agreed that these traditional religion are inferior to the imported ones, So its not fashionable to be publicly seen doing Isese. Some people who codedly still visit Isese will not want to be seen ding it in public

Also lack of proper documentation has eroded many of the knowledge in these African Religion, so it just looks like the current day practitioners are making up shit as they go

And the more people make stuff up, the more it lacks authenticity, even if you look at the new generation Christianity, it looks more like content creation than the structured orthodox churches we grew up with. Over time it will water it down an look like a joke

Depends for your adugbo tbh. There are certain lungu I dey enter that they still practice.

They have their festivals where them dey kpai Malu and dogs as well.

They have their own crowd though where it's generally accepted and don't really intermingle with Christians and Muslims but them dey do am openly
