A notorious Commander of the Islamic State of West African
Province, (ISWAP), popularly known as Kiriku, has reportedly died after he was
bitten by a venomous snake in Sambisa forest, Borno State.
The deceased was said to have died three days after the
incident.
According to reports, Kiriku sustained two snake bites from
the ‘highly venomous’ brown snake in one of their hideouts in Agikur Mosque in
Damboa Local Government Area last Tuesday and died on June 23, 2023.
Sources said the notorious ISWAP Commander must have died
due to lack of access to medical treatment.
Kiriku is believed to be one of the Commanders who operate
within the Jiddari axis of Chiralia in the Timbuktu triangle.
He led many attacks and ambushes against troops of Operation
Hadin Kai between the road from Maiduguri to Damboa.
