    Volunteer Forces Kill Notorious Bandit Commander, Turji’s Cousin, Danbokolo

    By Sani NuraJune 30, 2025
    Danbokolo

    DETAILS have emerged on how notorious bandit kingpin Kachalla Yellow Danbokolo died over the weekend in Zamfara State after an earlier gun battle with Shinkafi Volunteer Forces in the state.

    Kachalla Yellow’s death was wildly celebrated in Zamfara State and many parts of the North-West states as many locales know him as one of the most dreaded bandits in the zone, even more dangerous than his cousin, Bello Turji, whom they describe as a mere spokesperson.

    Security sources told News Point Nigeria that Kachalla Yellow and more than 173 bandits were killed after the blistering surprise attack by the volunteer forces.

    According to the sources, Kachalla Yellow, who sustained serious gun injuries during the attack, died over the weekend and was buried on Saturday.

    His death and that of several fighters loyal to him were reportedly being celebrated, particularly by residents of Kurya District in the Shinkafi Local Government Area, whom he had terrorised for years.

    A villager said, “We are in a serious celebration mood. It is hard to believe that Danbokolo, a man whose name used to strike fear in our hearts, is no more. I can authoritatively tell you that Danbokolo is the man behind the mask. He is the overall commander. Turji merely communicates while the dreaded Danbokolo is the executioner of all evil.

    “Not only Danbokolo was killed; at least 173 bandits loyal to him have been killed and buried within the week and several of them have fled the community. We see them running away after every raid on their hideouts.”

    Another resident confirmed that “known loyalists of Turji are now in a state of fear and confusion, and that some are now seeking to surrender as they see the end in sight”.

    He said, “This is the first time we believe that these bandits will soon be gone for good. Bello Turji has no hiding place. Knowing that his days are numbered, he and some of his foot soldiers have begun to desperately beg for amnesty. ”

    The source said locals including farmers have expressed hopes that they won’t have to pay taxes to bandits in this farming season.
