The ongoing clash between Nigerian troops and Turji’s men is reportedly taking place in the Sabon Birni area of Sokoto State.
Disclosing this to Daily Post on Thursday, a senior consultant and public affairs analyst, Abdulsalam Suleiman Izuagbe, stated that commuters can no longer travel from Shinkafi to Sabon Birni.
According to Izuagbe: “There is a war going on in Sabon Birni; Bello Turji is facing the Nigerian Army as I talk to you.
“They are exchanging fire in the Sabon Birni area. From Shinkafi to Sabon Birni is no longer safe for anybody to travel, as I’m presently speaking. To think it’s a normal business as usual is missing the point.”
At the time of filing this report, the Sokoto State Police Command spokesperson, ASP Sanusi Abubakar, had not responded to calls or texts sent to his phone.
