The federal government has vowed to end the reign of the new terrorist organisation, Lakurawa, which is operating in Kebbi and Sokoto states.
National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu made this assertion in Abuja at the 2024 CGCs Conference with the theme, “Nigeria Customs Service: Engaging Traditional and New Partners with Purpose.”
Ribadu, who said the security agencies are united toward dealing with Nigeria’s 14-year-old security crisis, explained that the unprecedented teamwork of the security agencies is yielding maximum results, with Boko Haram terrorists now fleeing the country into neighbouring Chad.
On his part, the Minister of Defence, Mohammed Badaru Abubakar, said that the Service Chiefs are working hard to implement measures that will help in crushing the new terror group, Lakurawa.
He disclosed that more equipment and additional troops would be deployed to the affected areas to stem the tide of the security challenge and ensure that it did not escalate to other states.
