Terrorists Release Video Showing Their Eid-El-Fitr Celebration Openly In Large Gathering At Zamfara Community

Some bandits in large numbers observed this year’s Eid-El-Fitr prayers and other festivities in the open in Zamfara State, Northwest Nigeria.

The terrorists, who seem to be unperturbed, gathered at the Eid ground in Munhaye town in Zamfara on Wednesday to perform the two raka’at prayers to mark the end of Ramadan fast.

In a viral video posted by a security analyst and counter-insurgency expert in the Lake Chad basin, Zagazola Makama on his X handle, the bandits calmly celebrated Eid-El-Fitr without any visible apprehension. The bandits could be seen with their guns.

They reportedly took hours to recite the Quran and also engaged in wild jubilation.

“Bandits in Zamfara state have released a new video showing its members celebrating the recent Eid-el-Fitr  festival in Munhaye community in Zamfara state,” Zagazola said.

Some Nigerians have taken to their X handles to express displeasure with the terrorists’ gathering without being arrested or challenged by police personnel or soldiers.

For instance, Blessed (@BlessedOdoba) tweeted, “There’s no way the community or government securities will no know that they’re gathering.
