Black was one of the pioneers of terrorism in Zamfara and a protégé of the late Tsoho Buhari.
He was also a close ally of the late Halilu Sububu, who was similarly killed in an ambush on September 13, 2024.
Local sources told Premium Times that bandits loyal to Black carried out the failed attack on Unguwar Galadima, but suffered casualties, abandoned several weapons, and fled.
“They arrived in the community at 5 a.m. when Muslims faithful were preparing for the dawn prayer. They entered the community to get revenge for the killing of Sani Black; it was the second failed attack on the same mission since Black was killed.
“Fortunately for the residents, the vigilantes defended the community; they killed several of the invaders and recovered 10 rifles abandoned by the fleeing bandits.
“Two residents of the Unguwar Galadima were, however, injured from the attack. They are now responding to treatment at nearby Dansadau Hospital, at Dansadau town”, one of the sources said, asking not to be named for security reasons.
Soldiers stationed in the area also ambushed the bandits as they withdrew from Unguwar Galadima and recovered several arms, including an explosive device, another source added.
