Intelligence officials from Niger, Mali, and Burkina Faso say they are preparing to publicly disclose the names of senior Nigerian politicians accused of backing b@ndit groups operating in Nigeria’s North-West.

According to security analyst Zagazola Makama, the agencies revealed that they already have in their possession the names of politicians suspected of aiding the cr+minal gangs.

Officials further confirmed that “some individuals involved in supplying arms to the b@ndits had been arrested and investigations were underway.”

The agencies stressed that the planned disclosure is part of wider regional efforts to dismantle cross-border cr+minal networks fueling insecurity in West Africa.

The development also highlights the growing security cooperation among Sahelian states, particularly in confronting armed groups and tackling illicit arms tr@fficking across borders.
