The Kaduna State Government on Monday said security operatives killed over 50 bandits in a combined ground and air assaults in Saulawa-Farin Ruwa, in the Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of the state.
The state Commissioner of Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday. He said, “According to the operational feedback to the Kaduna State Government from the command of the joint operations, a Nigerian Air Force helicopter gunship provided close air support to ground troops advancing from the Dogon Dawa-Damari-Saulawa axis.
“Following extensive scans, bandits were spotted on five motorcycles, about four kilometres east of Saulawa, waiting to ambush the ground forces. They were engaged vigorously by the helicopter gunship and wiped out. “After this, armed bandits on about 50 motorcycles were sighted fleeing towards Farin Ruwa, and were struck effectively by the gunship. Fleeing remnants were mopped up by ground forces.
Are you even sure the people they struck from high above the ground are really bandits? They might have just bombed innocent farmers holding cutlas and hoes
Oh air strike not foot soldiers 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Photo evidences? How many are they, that they are not finished?
How can the father of Bandits support the killing of he's children?
Elrufai is a propaganda machine, is there any evidence to back up your claims?
Photos? We won see the bodies. No dey believe lies.
