The Nigerian military has reaffirmed its commitment to eliminating notorious bandit leader Bello Turji, stating that he is currently being tracked and will soon be neutralized.
The Chief of Defence Operations, Major General Emeka Onumajuru, made this known during an interview on Channels Television’s *The Morning Brief* on Monday.
Onumajuru confirmed that the military is aware of **Turji’s whereabouts** but declined to provide further details.
“I want to clarify that there is no back-and-forth between Bello Turji and the armed forces.
“As we speak, he is completely in hiding, and the military is tracking him. The Armed Forces are monitoring his movements, and very soon, he will be eliminated,” he stated.
He urged Nigerians to remain patient, explaining that tracking a bandit leader can take time, but assured that it would not be long before Turji is taken down and his activities in the Northwest brought to an end.
