Director of Defence Information, Jimmy Akpor, disclosed the names of the suspected terrorists in a poster released on Monday.
According to the military spokesman, the wanted terrorists have been terrorising Katsina, Sokoto and Zamfara states—the hotbeds of banditry in northwest Nigeria.
The DHQ promised to reward anyone who has information that could lead to the arrest of one of the suspected terrorists with the sum of N5 million.
Ado Aliero, a suspected bandit leader, who was turbaned in July 2022 as Sarkin Fulani in Zamfara is featured on the list.
The controversial chieftaincy title, which sparked widespread criticism, prompted Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara to suspend the emir who awarded the title to Aliero.
Speaking in a documentary released by BBC Africa Eye in July, the self-confessed bandit kingpin said he does not kidnap people, adding that he only kills those who have been kidnapped by his gang members.
