The Zamfara State Governor, Dauda Lawal, has expressed optimism that the activities of the notorious terrorist and bandit leader, Bello Turji, would soon be a thing of the past. The governor, who made the expression on Wednesday during an interview on Channels TV, said the days of the dreaded terrorist are numbered.
Governor Lawal expressed confidence in the Nigerian Armed Forces, stating that the ongoing onslaught against criminal elements would yield good fruits by eliminating them from the country. ''I believe Bello Turji is a matter of time, his days are numbered because I can see the commitment from the Armed Forces in terms of taking Bello Turji out. 'I am confident and optimistic and I believe that the Armed Forces also are ready to take him out,' he said.
reports that Turji had claimed responsibility for a series of deadly attacks in Zamfara and its neighbouring states. All efforts to get him eliminated have proved abortive despite the onslaught that has successfully led to the killing of several terrorists.
