Nigerian Army Confirms Weapons Training by Bandit Leader in Sokoto
The Nigerian Army has confirmed intelligence regarding weapons training by bandit leader Bello Turji in Sokoto. This development raises concerns about escalating security threats in the region, particularly in border communities plagued by violence and criminal activities.

The Nigerian Army has acknowledged intelligence reports indicating that Bello Turji and his group are conducting weapons training in Isa Local Government Area, Sokoto State. This activity is reportedly occurring in communities such as Bingabale, Bafarawa, Bargaja, and Gebe, areas linked to Turji's operations.
Allegations suggest that armed fighters, including associates like Illa Manawa and Dodo, are engaged in military drills with newly acquired arms, which may enhance their firepower. The group is also suspected of utilizing night-vision equipment.
