The Defence Headquarters on Monday said troops of Operation Fansan Yamma killed terrorist kingpin Bello Turji’s son and many of his fighters during clearance operations
The operations that were conducted on January 17 along Shinkafi, Kagara, Fakai, Moriki, Maiwa, and Chindo axis also led to the destruction of the terrorists’ logistic base.
A statement by the outgoing Director of Media Operations, Major General Edward Buba, said Turji’s son was killed at Fakai high ground, where the terrorists were hiding.
He also declared Turji a coward for abandoning his son and fighters during the operations.
