 Terrorists, banditry activities in Northwest have reduced – Shehu Sani Shehu Sani, a former Kaduna Central Senator, has disclosed a decrease in the activities of terrorists and bandits in the Northwest. Sani said the recent killings of some top terrorists’ leaders could have been responsible for the decrease. Posting on X, the former lawmaker wrote: “In the last few weeks, there is a noticeable decrease in terrorist and banditry attacks and kidnappings in the North Western parts of this country. “The elimination of some of the top terrorist leaders must have been responsible.This is commendable and should be sustained.” In the past weeks, notable bandit leaders have been killed in the North. Those eliminated include- Haliru Kachalla Sububu or Buzu, Kachalla Tukur Sharme (killed by rival gang), Sani Black, another prominent bandit leader, killed along with his brother and two children, Kachalla Makore, Kachalla Mai Shayi Kachalla Tsoho Lulu and Mai’Yar Gitta.

SASA IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FATAL MOB ACTION IN ONITSHA



Government has noticed that some ill-informed social media commentators  have been maliciously trying to ascribe the Wednesday, 1st of November mob action at Bida Road, Onitsha which claimed the lives of two young men, to the newly inaugurated Special Anti-Touting Squad Anambra (SASA). 

These accusations can best be described as calumnious, baseless and diametrically in contrast with the modus operandi of SASA.

On the fateful day in question, at about 1:20 pm, two persons were mobbed at Bida Road in Onitsha. The victims were identified as  Monday alias Aka Odo and Ikechukwu.

These two well-known criminals had escaped from a shanty behind Menax Hospital, Onitsha, that served as their hideout after it was earlier raided by SASA. The criminals used the hideout as a place of convergence from where they dispersed each day to commit diverse crimes and engage in violent extortion.

While they fled, the two victims were apprehended by traders who recognized them because they had been victims of these criminals' activities on many  occasions in the past.

Realizing that these identifiable criminals were on the run and vulnerable, the traders attacked them and subsequently meted out jungle justice on them before SASA personnel were alerted. 

It was an unfortunate situation which the SASA Unit had no hand in.

However, information available reveals that the gang has links to a notorious criminal known as Ikanda, who is currently serving a prison term.

Anambra State Special Anti-Touting Unit shall continue to abide by its laid down code of conduct and standard operation procedures as it remains committed to actualizing its mandate as directed by the Governor of Anambra State.

The public is encouraged to alert SASA of touting related activities once observed. Numbers to call are: 08156352767 and 09017280990.

If you see something, please say something.

Signed
