A defence intelligence source told PRNigeria that the kingpin and his boys earlier fled Niger State to one Alhaji Gwarzo’s house at Yadi in Giwa local government area for safety, following NAF aircraft sustained bombardments on his location in Niger recently.
“Unfortunately for them, while they were having a meeting, NAF aircraft struck Alhaji Gwarzo’s house, leaving everybody in the building neutralized including Yellow,” the source was quoted by PR Nigeria as saying.
Meanwhile, it was also gathered that separate bombardments on the same day targeting terrorists at a location 33 metres Northwest of Mando in Kaduna were also undertaken. The source said:
“Following credible intelligence of terrorists leaders and their foot soldiers converging under tree covers at the location for a meeting, the location was struck with several terrorists killed.”
Confirming the successful bombardment, NAF spokesperson, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet, said the Nigerian Air Force would keep up bombardment of non-state actors in the northwest.
