Troops from Operation FANSAN YAMMA (OPFY) successfully eliminated three notorious terrorist leaders during an ambush in Sabon Birni Local Government Area of Sokoto State.
This was revealed on Saturday in a post by counterinsurgency expert and security analyst Zagazola Makama on X.
The operation reportedly occurred on Thursday, July 25, between Mallamawa and Mazau villages along the Tsamaye/Mai Lalle corridor within Sabon Birni LGA.
The soldiers neutralized three high-profile terrorist commanders named Kachalla Nagomma, Gurmu, and Ali Yar Daribiyar. During the raid, three AK-47 rifles with magazines and a motorcycle were recovered.
Security insiders said the terrorists and their foot soldiers had entered the area to demand ransom and collect illegal taxes from residents but were caught off guard by the troops’ ambush.
The success of the operation sparked widespread relief and celebrations in Mai Lalle, Tsamaye, Rimaye, and other communities in Sabon Birni and Goronyo LGAs.
“These terrorists have long tormented the communities with killings, kidnappings and extortion, so this success is a huge morale boost for the people,” a source was quoted as saying.
Troops have intensified both active combat and other security operations in the region, coordinating closely with other security agencies and local vigilante groups.
The military appealed to the public to aid ongoing efforts by providing reliable and timely information that can assist in dismantling criminal hideouts.
