The Nigerian military has announced the death of notorious terrorist kingpin, Yellow Danbokkolo, who was killed in a fierce encounter with troops of Operation FASAN YAMA.

The Armed Forces of Nigeria has reiterated its commitment to restoring normalcy in all parts of the country and is calling for the cooperation of all Nigerians in this drive.
The military’s efforts to eliminate terrorist leaders and disrupt their operations are ongoing, and the death of Yellow Danbokkolo is seen as a major victory in the fight against terrorism.
