Bello Turji Still Alive Despite Rumored Death
Bello Turji Still Alive Despite Rumored Death
Recent rumors suggesting that the notorious bandit leader Bello Turji was killed in a United States airstrike are false, Investigations indicate that Turji is still alive and is currently hiding in Dubagale, a village north of Dan Adama in the Sabon Birni area of Sokoto, which sits approximately 25 kilometers from the border of the Niger Republic.
These claims are entirely baseless, as Turji was not targeted or killed in any such military operation. Instead, he has simply relocated to a new base near the border. It is believed that these viral reports were sparked by misinformation and the recycling of old stories regarding the intensified military efforts against bandits across Northwestern Nigeria.
As a long-wanted criminal figure primarily active in Zamfara and its surrounding states, Bello Turji remains responsible for numerous fatal attacks, large-scale kidnappings, and the widespread displacement of local populations.
