 End of the Road: Army captures infamous bandit leader Baka Wurgi in Zamfara


In a major breakthrough against banditry, troops of the 1 Brigade, Nigerian Army, have captured Baka Wurgi, also known as Baka NaGarba, a notorious bandit leader and arms dealer implicated in the murder of the Emir of Gobir, Alhaji Isa Mohammad Bawa, in Sokoto State.

The operation, executed on Dec. 14 at 10 p.m., was based on intelligence that Wurgi was receiving treatment at a hospital in Shinkafi, Zamfara State, for severe injuries sustained during a clash with a rival group.

Sources to Zagazola Makama that Wurgi, bearing multiple cuts and gunshot wounds, was apprehended while receiving medical care.

Two of his accomplices managed to flee during the raid, but another individual, who had transported Wurgi to the hospital using a tricycle, was arrested.

The late Emir of Gobir was kidnapped on July 9, 2024, in Sabon Birnin Local Government Area of Sokoto State. His murder on Aug. 22 followed failed ransom negotiations involving cash and motorcycles. Wurgi is suspected of playing a central role in the abduction and killing.

Described as a notorious arms smuggler with international connections, Wurgi reportedly shares familial ties with Bello Turji, another infamous bandit leader, through their grandfather.

Adding to the complex web of criminal networks, Wurgi’s son, Sani Duna, allegedly operates as a getaway biker for Turji.

The arrest of Wurgi has been hailed as a significant achievement in the Nigerian Army’s campaign against terrorism and banditry in the Northwest region.

Wurgi is currently being held at an undisclosed location as the search intensifies for his fleeing accomplices.

Residents of Sokoto, Kebbi, and Zamfara states have commended the military’s success, expressing hope that this development will lead to a decline in the violence and insecurity plaguing the region.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff.
