Mudi, Son Killed In Battle As Ansaru Terrorists And Dogo Gide Clash Over Mining Sites
A battle for superiority between two bandit organizations for control of various mining sites has resulted in the death of several terrorists.
According to reliable published by PRNigeria, the savage conflict took place in the Kuyello region of Birnin Gwari local government area of Kaduna state between Dogo Gide’s band of robbers and Jammatu Ansarul Musulmin Biladis Sunna, commonly known as Ansaru.
“A wanted terrorist leader, Mudi and his son Murtala, on Dogo Gide’s side, lost their lives.
“Dogo Gide’s side also suffered severe losses, including close associates and some family members.
“The rivalry is a battle of supremacy over the control of mining sites.
“There are several gold mining sites in Birnin Gwari. Most mined products are smuggled outside Nigeria into Niger, which implies a strong connection with criminal elements in the Republic of Niger.
“The recent clash draws attention to more rivalry attacks in the days ahead, considering the encroachment of JAS and ISWAP elements in the Northwest,” the source told PRNigeria.
The defence intelligence source who confirmed the rival clash between the terrorist factions further said that the casualty figure was high on both sides going by the sighted corpses, which littered the affected areas.
