A notorious bandits leader operating in northwest Nigeria, Bello Turji Kachalla, has accused the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, of complicity in supporting terrorism in the country.
According to a viral video, Turji alleged that the current security issues in Nigeria are backed by Matawalle, who is the immediate past governor of Zamfara state.
,,,,,,Turji, who has led several violent attacks including a massacre of over 200 people in Zamfara State, claimed to have evidence supporting his accusations.
,,,,,,,While speaking in Hausa, Turji stated, “The issue of insecurity plaguing our country has the full backing of the immediate past Government of Zamfara State. I have evidence to support this claim. The past government, under His Excellency Bello Mattawallen Maradun (State Minister of Defence), is well-known to everyone in the region.”
Turji asserted that the former Zamfara government facilitated negotiations with bandits but also sabotaged efforts for peace, accusing several individuals from the Shinkafi, Zurmi, and Issah communities of being complicit and mentioned specific names such as Kabiru Maniya and Bashari Maniya, alleging their involvement in harbouring weapons and coordinating attacks.
,,,,,,,However, he further alleged that some ‘repentant’ bandits were living freely in Sokoto state while still possessing a significant number of weapons.
Turji claimed that these individuals, despite their supposed cooperation with government forces, continued to facilitate attacks by advising security forces to vacate certain areas.
,,,,,,“The government should explain this to Nigerians and stop accusing Bello Turji of killing and kidnapping people.
“Those being kidnapped around Sokoto, Achida, and Goronyo—who is kidnapping them? Turji, is currently living peacefully in Shinkafi, is not responsible.
…..“Let the government come out and take responsibility for some of the atrocities being committed and stop falsely accusing others,” he added.
