Security operatives in Zamfara State said they have disrupted a suspected supply route used by bandits in Maru Local Government Area.
The Zamfara State Community Protection Guard reportedly arrested a driver found carrying 98 explosive devices believed to be en route to criminal groups.
According to security analyst Bakatsine on X, the operation also led to the recovery of a large sum of cash and other items linked to the suspected network.
“Authorities also recovered N13,352,500 in cash and two new motorcycles believed to support the operation. Officials describe the seizure as a significant breakthrough in efforts to curb banditry in the region,” he shared on X.
No further details about the suspects were made public; however, Bakatsine described the action as decisive.
It is believed this could help weaken the terrorist network operating along the Zamfara axis.
