GREATRIBUNETVNEWS–According to Lieutenant Colonel Abubakar Abdullahi, Coordinator Joint Media Coordination Centre, Operation Fansan Yamma, troops of the 1 Brigade in Sector 2 Joint Task Force North West, Operation Fansan Yamma, have neutralized several terrorists, including the notorious kingpin Alhaji Ma’oli. The operation took place on December 26, 2024, in Mai Sheka village, near Kunchin Kalgo town, an area that had suffered under Ma’oli’s reign of terror.
Ma’oli was infamous for imposing illegal levies on residents of Unguwan Rogo, Mai Sheka, Magazawa, and other surrounding areas of Bilbis in Tsafe LGA of Zamfara State. His neutralization has brought relief and excitement to locals in the Bilbis general area.
The operation was initiated in response to an intelligence report of terrorists on motorcycles operating in the Bilbis axis of Bilbis District, Tsafe LGA in Zamfara State. The swift response by troops of Operation Fansan Yamma thwarted the terrorists’ plan to attack the locals and reinforced the commitment to securing the area from further acts of violence.
Operation Fansan Yamma remains resolute in its mandate to pursue and neutralize all remaining terrorists and their collaborators across the Joint Task Force Theatre of Operation. The Joint Task Force will continue to work diligently alongside local communities towards achieving lasting peace and security in Zamfara State and beyond.
