Zamfara Crackdown: Police Capture Alleged Algerian Arms Dealer

In Zamfara State, police have arrested a 58-year-old Algerian arms dealer involved in transborder arms trafficking.

He was apprehended at the Illela border, reportedly with four AK-47 rifles at the time of arrest, and confessed to supplying weapons to bandits in the northwest region for the past eight years.

This operation also led to the recovery of additional firearms, ammunition, and cash during raids conducted over the last three weeks.

The authorities emphasized their commitment to combating arms trafficking and other crimes fueling insecurity in the region.

The suspect’s confession further underscores the complexity of the arms supply chain in northern Nigeria. Investigations are ongoing to dismantle such networks​.
