The threat was disclosed on Monday in a post by security analyst, Bakatsine, via X (formerly Twitter). According to the post, Turji claimed that the dam was obstructing his group’s movements through the region.
“Bandit kingpin Bello Turji has vowed to force villagers in Isa LGA, Sokoto State to drain their dam, warning of brutal consequences for defiance. How is a terrorist bragging like a ruler?” Bakatsine wrote.
