Damina who was alleged to have burnt a woman alive during one of his operations was killed in a clash with another bandit leader, Dogon Gide.

It was reported that he died from several injuries sustained following the deadly clash at a spot near Chilin and Fammaje, two farming communities that had been under his control.
