Nigeria and its neighbours in Chad and Niger have launched a joint military offensive against the Lakurawa terrorist group.

It is understood that the countries’ forces have commenced joint patrols to contain cross-border threats posed by the Lakurawa terrorist group.



The new terrorist group is affiliated with terrorists in the Sahel, particularly from Mali and Niger Republic. It has been linked to heinous criminal activities in the northern part of Nigeria and its neighbours. The group’s activities intensified after the coup in Niger, and they have been responsible for several attacks, including a recent explosion in Zamfara State.

The Lakurawa group is a Mali-based terrorist organization known in the Sahel as Jama’atu Muslimina. The group’s leader, Ahmadu Kofa, has ancestors originally from Nigeria, specifically from the Kebbi Empire. The group has been planning to establish its caliphate for over 25 years, a researcher with the Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto, Dr Murtala Rufa’i, said.


The Lakurawa group has been attacking villages to collect taxes and has set up camps in 10 Local Government Areas of Sokoto and Bauchi states before its operations became known to the public weeks ago.

The Nigerian Defence Headquarters, in November, announced the emergence of the sect, which the military said operates mainly in Sokoto and Kebbi states.

Lmao, jokers

Shame

New ones forming because Govt can't just silences them with all the money and weapons put into this fight

let not forget that there are an estimated 49 million kangaroos in Australia, and 3.5 million people living in Uruguay. If kangaroos ever decided to invade Uruguay, each Uruguayan would have to fight 14 kangaroos.

pray for Uruguay

NDI MGBU!!! YOU GUS NEED TO KILL ALL THE TERRORISTS! SHOW NO MERCY

I thought the terrorist groups are old news lol

Uck

Political Terrorists.

Some people the government is only fixated on their (those people's) terrorists while allowing nothern terrorists to have a free reign. Do you envy northern terrorist right now?

Niger and Chadian forces should watch their backs because the very people they're fighting against have members in the Nigerian military.

Show no mercy! Neutralize dem all

You guys don't like hearing good news about Nigeria I guess . You would have been happy if you have read some part of North has been taken over by terrorist. You guys always wish this country evil yet you live and trade inside that same country. Una Mumu don do abeg

The way terror groups are springing up in the North, one would think they are NGOs . How can you be killing yourselves for religious reasons? It gets really hard understanding these talakawas sometimes.

Show no mercy on this terrorist

. Very good

We can call that Tinubu effect.. baba sabbi that game, make him just help us solve masses problems, the one he inflicted himself

Guy nothing will be done, Africans and terrorism is 5&6. All your jargons you wrote are not needed, you really aired your mind like a true mugu.

This ones that has been planning on establishing their caliphate may start from toppling the sultan and establishing theirs.... The whole north is in deep shit. Different Islamic terror sects with different ideologies....

This doesn't require military solutions only. They need to get crossed the root of how this groups form . What can be done to mitigate them at the formation stage. Everything is not going to be solved by force. I think it is even force that aggravated the situation.

Western funded terrorist group

Níger finally having the last laugh..
I believe Chad and níger to be committed to this task but I doubt NIGERIA is.


Meanwhile note

it is only a Nigerian girl you will see preparing for marriage and she only has #5k or less in her account

With a mind blowing milage

This is why I'm not happy concerning the events in Syria. Allowing terrorist groups to takeover a big country like Syria is very bad news for West Africa security.

Lakurawa is the hand work of the West and with time Nigeria Will eventually be conquered by these terrorists as it happened in Afghanistan and now in Syria

The Islamic religion is due for a major reform.

Their clerics in Africa and some part of middle east needs re-orientation, the age of empire has ended.

The long time ruler of Kazakhstan had to re-orientate all their clerics and since then they have been enjoying Peace, tourism is now flourishing. China is doing same in Xinjiang province.

STRANGE CRIMINAL BEDFELLOWS. THAT'S CONFUSING.

Good one from the 3countries

Very unfortunate set of individuals. Always wishing bad for their very own country. That's witchcraft!

Niger and Chad military should be wary of Nigerian Military when it comes to fighting terrorism.. E get why

To think it was some stupid villagers that went to invite Lakarawa into this country ..most Nigerians are not smart, they only know how to make things worse

Mtchew

These northern people want to live on terrorism all their lives.

They are not the people the Southern leaders should be doing unity with.
