From Ayodele Ajoge, Birnin-Kebbi

Group of Hunters under the umbrella of Nigeria Hunters and Forest Security Service (NHFSS) have killed a kidnap kingpin widely known as ‘Yellow’ at the wee hours of Friday at his hideout in the Zuru Emirate Council of the State.

While speaking with Journalists on the death of the bandit leader, the Commander of the Security group in the State, Musa Hussaini Rambo said he had been kidnapping, raping, killing and terrorising communities in the area for over seven years.

“Some of our members, in a joint patrol, comprising military and police agents, were alerted on the attack by Yellow and his members in Danko/Wasagu.

“Before the attack, he sent a letter to one of our members threatening that the day they meet face to face would be his last day on earth. But incidentally, it was that our member that killed him during the attack.”

Hussaini-Rambo said that the bandit had carried out attacks more than five times in the area in this year alone.

He commended security agencies in the state for carrying them along in ensuring the security and maintenance of law and order across the state.
