Bandit Kingpin, Ado Aleru Holds Emergency Meeting Over Nephew’s Killing

Notorious bandit leader, Ado Aleru, has convened an emergency meeting with his fighters and loyalists following the killing of his nephew, Isuhu Yellow, by a rival bandit faction loyal to Dogo Gide.

This was made known by Zagazola Makama, a counter-insurgency expert focused on the Lake Chad region, in a post on his X handle.

Makama said that he was informed by intelligence sources that the meeting was held on Thursday at one of Aleru’s camps in Munhaye forest, Tsafe Local Government Area of Zamfara State.

“We saw dozens of motorcycles carrying them (bandits) from all directions, heading towards Munhaye,” a local source, who requested anonymity, said.

The security expert stated that the killing of Isuhu Yellow in Dan Jibga village is believed to be part of the ongoing rivalry between Aleru and Gide, two of the most notorious bandit leaders operating in the North-West region.

According to the report, sources said the meeting was convened to discuss possible retaliation and strategies following the attack.

“The rivalry between Aleru and Gide has led to repeated violent clashes, causing loss of lives and displacement of communities in Zamfara and neighboring states,” the security expert noted.

This insecurity politics is really tiring. Nigerians sit and watch as their country is going. Few politicians are milking the country dry on a daily basis but the youth allow themselves to be divided along flimsy issues like tribe, religion and party affiliations. Every year, Billions are budgeted for the fight against insurgency and all forms of insecurity, but year in year out, it waxes stronger. If the Government is not enjoying the loot of that budgeted money every year, this issue would have long been forgotten. What will it take to invest in Intelligence and information, get the exact locations of all these bandits, and carry out a mop up within one week of intense bombing and land operations. Fortunately, the bandits are in forests, where it is safer to engage, but the Government still does nothing but budget millions every year.

Just look at how military camouflage is commonly used by terrorists in the North but it is unknowingly worn by a civilian in the South the stupid soldiers of northern extraction will pounce on him/her like mad dogs.

Is it everybody in the north that are murderers?? Do you know how many igbo people are living and doing their businesses peacefully in the north?? Kano alone houses tens of thousands of igbo people. If all the northerners are murderers, wouldn't they have murderered those ones in their own backyard?? How about ESN boys murdering people in the east? Why haven't you tagged all igbo people as murderers because of the few people among them that kill indiscriminately??
