In a bid to evade capture by Nigerian troops of Operation Fansan Yanma, notorious bandit leader Bello Turji has reportedly mobilized a network of prayer warriors to intercede on his behalf.
Turji’s reign of terror has long been supported by spiritual leaders who offer prayers and guidance before his gang embarks on any mission.
These clerics, believed to hail from Niger Republic and Maiduguri, allegedly provide spiritual backing and determine the timing and nature of his criminal operations.
“It has been a routine for Turji to consult these prayer warriors before carrying out attacks. They give directives on which missions are auspicious and advise on strategies for evading military offensives,” a security source disclosed.
As the military intensifies its efforts to apprehend Turji, it is believed that he has turned to this network of clerics for spiritual protection against the ongoing offensive in Zamfara, Sokoto and surrounding states.
