Bello Turji, Ado Aleru should be eliminated like Kachalla – Shehu Sani

Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, has disclosed that bandit leaders, Bello Turji and Ado Aleru, should be eliminated the same way Zamfara bandit leader, Yellow Kachalla was killed.

Sani said the elimination of Kachalla is a major victory in the fight against terrorism in Northern Nigeria.

Posting on X, he wrote: “The news of the extermination of the infamous and notorious Zamfara bandit leader “Yellow” by Nigerian security forces is a major victory in the fight against terrorism in the North Western part of the country.

“Similar fate should await the likes of Bello Turji and Ado Aleru.”

Kachalla’s killing marked the end of the reign of a feared warlord long linked to deadly attacks, mass kidnappings, cattle rustling and violent raids across communities in Nigeria’s North-West.

He was shot dead on Friday at Dan Jibga Market in Anka Local Government Area of Zamfara State by armed men believed to be loyal to rival bandit kingpin, Dogo Gide.

Kachalla was widely regarded as one of the most influential bandit commanders operating within the forests spanning Anka, Bukkuyum, Maru and neighbouring local government areas of Zamfara State.
