Shortchanged informant ready to betray bandits in Zamfara

Babuga Abubakar has confessed that he invited armed bandits to raid Wanke village in Gusau local government area and rustled 240 cows.

The Police Tactical Operatives of the Zamfara state police command along with operatives from FIB/STS Force Headquarters, Abuja led by DSP Hussaini Gimba,  paraded the chronic informant in Gusau.

The state police commissioner Mr Ayuba Elkanah said the suspect has been collaborating with notorious bandits such as Lawali Na’eka, a ring leader operating in Maradun LGA and one Almeriya, a notorious bandits’ kingpin operating in Bungudu local government.

Abubakar explained he committed the crime based on the agreement that he would get his share out of the stolen cows.

Unfortunately, he didn’t get anything from the deal even before he was arrested.

“I would be happy if the police command would allow me to go and meet those cattle rustlers in the forest to plead with them to return the rustled cattle.

“I seek for the forgiveness of those who were hurt in the cause of my bad actions. I must confessed that I have become a sheep in wolf clothes,” he said.
