Zamfara Residents Applaud Matawalle Over Bandit Leader’s Dan Isuhu killing

Residents of Tsafe in Zamfara State have expressed gratitude to the Minister of State for Defence, Dr. Bello Matawalle, following the successful elimination of the notorious bandit leader, Dan Isuhu. The community described the development as a crucial step in restoring security in the state and the wider North-West region.

In a statement signed by its chairman, Engr. Muhammad Hussaini, the residents attributed the success to Dr. Matawalle’s strategic directives, which have strengthened military operations against terrorist elements, including the infamous bandit kingpin, Bello Turji.

Dan Isuhu, known for orchestrating kidnappings, killings, and other criminal activities, had terrorized communities in Tsafe, Gusau, and parts of Katsina State’s Funtua Local Government Area for years.

His elimination is regarded as a major breakthrough in the fight against insecurity in Zamfara.

“Dr. Matawalle has played a key role in driving intensified military operations, leading to the dismantling of criminal networks and the liberation of affected communities,” the statement read.
