Militants, appearing unaffected, convened on the Eid venue in Munhaye locality, Zamfara, on Wednesday for conducting the duo raka'at prayers signaling the culmination of the Ramadan fast.

In Zamfara State, situated in the Northwest of Nigeria, a considerable number of militants openly observed this year's Eid-El-Fitr prayers and festivities.

Unbothered by potential repercussions, these individuals assembled at the Eid location in Munhaye municipality, Zamfara, on Wednesday, to carry out the duo raka'at prayers, symbolizing the end of the fasting period.

A security specialist and expert on counter-insurgency operations within the Lake Chad basin, Zagazola Makama, shared a widely circulated video on his X profile. It depicted the militants partaking in Eid-El-Fitr festivities without any evident fear, even displaying their firearms.

They were reported to have spent several hours reciting the Quran and engaging in enthusiastic celebrations.

A number of Nigerian citizens have voiced their discontent over the militants' unabated gathering through posts on their X profiles, criticizing the lack of arrests or intervention by police forces or military personnel.

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