A notorious bandit leader, formerly known as Kachallah Bugaje, has publicly renounced banditry and pledged to abandon criminal activities along with 50 of his fighters.
In a 5-minute, 42-second video, obtained by Zagazola Makama, Bugaje, who now wishes to be called Zakiru Bugaje, denounced kidnapping and theft, declaring his decision to turn a new leaf.
“We have abducted over 50 people, called their families, and demanded ransoms—some as high as 10 million naira, others 25 million naira. But we later released them without collecting a penny, out of the fear of God,” he said.
Bugaje repeatedly expressed remorse for his past actions, emphasizing that he would no longer engage in criminality.
He praised Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and urged others involved in banditry to abandon their ways.
