Bandit leader, Bello Turji says ready to surrender

War weary bandit leader, Bello Turji, says he is ready to surrender to the Nigerian authorities in a peace deal that will guarantee him and his foot soldiers safety.

In a video that has gone viral online, Bello Turji, said enough of the killings of the innocent masses, which he claimed were carried out by government agents in the name of bandit attacks.

He noted that his surrender does not mean he and his members are being overpowered, but rather a call for peaceful cohabitation with farmers and residents in the region.

“We are calling on the incumbent administration to understand that the agents it is sending to kill innocent people in the name of bandits is not a good thing,” Turji said in the trending video.

“We are calling on the Zamfara State and Federal Government for peace. Enough of the killing.”

The terrorist kingpin added: “We urge the government to compensate those affected and embrace peace with herders and farmers.

“Let’s all embrace peace. We are calling for peace, not because of the speculations that we are being overpowered. We are only surrendering for peace to reign and to return to peaceful cohabitation between farmers and headers.

“We call on our fighters across the bushes to sheath their swords and embrace peace.”
