Black Mamba Strikes: 73 Bandits Killed as Hausa Warriors Rise in Zamfara, Katsina

By BigNews Staff Reporter | April 26, 2025

A storm is rising in Northern Nigeria — and its name is Yan Sakai, the fearless Hausa vigilante fighters dubbed the “Black Mamba” by Hausaland Magazine.

In what is being hailed as the boldest anti-bandit operation in recent times, the Yan Sakai launched seven deadly offensives across Zamfara and Katsina, taking out 73 deadly Fulani terrorist bandits — including four top-level commanders.

This massive blow to bandit operations has electrified Hausaland. For the first time in years, the people of the region are witnessing a grassroots force taking the fight to the enemy — on their own terms, and with chilling precision.

“They are all Hausa. No compromise,” said a community leader in Gusau. “Fulani have refused to join the vigilante efforts, and that tells you everything.”

Many Yan Sakai fighters are survivors. Others are grieving brothers, sons, and fathers who have turned their pain into purpose. Their message is clear: this is not just revenge — this is a renaissance.

From Northern Zamfara to the forests of Katsina, the message is spreading: Hausaland will defend itself. Now, all eyes are turning to Eastern Sokoto, where further resistance is expected to erupt in the coming weeks.

With the government’s security apparatus stretched thin, many are now asking: is this the beginning of a true Hausa Reclamation War?
