Lakurawa T£rr0rist Group launch a fresh att@ck in Zamfara State
A fresh att@ck has again been launched in Zamfara State by a new t£rr0rist group called Lakurawa.
In November, Celebritynote reported the emergence of this new t£rr0rist group when they att@cked a local community in Borno State.
The Lakurawas have taken their d£@dly att@ck to Zamfara State where many were k!Iled and several others seriously injüred.
The t£rr0rist group reportedly took £xpl0sives and b0mbed a community on the Gusau-Dansadau road in the Maru Local Government Area.
It is reported that the £xpl0sive, planted by Lakurawa b@ndits, went off in a busy area, affecting both commuters and nearby residents.
The incident was reported on Wednesday by Zagazola Makama, a countert£rr0rism and !nsurg£ncy expert in the Lake Chad Basin.
Makama pointed out that this £xpl0sion was the second att@ck of its kind along the route, indicating a concerning change in the methods employed by b@ndits in the region.
He said that the use of £xpl0sives by these cr!m!nals marks a dangerous escalation in the area’s security situation.
“Traditionally known for their activities such as k!dn@pping, cattle rustling, and a*med att@cks, the use of £xpl0sives introduces a new level of !ns£curity in the region”, he wrote.
The military afterwards confirmed and acknowledged saying that the safety and security of citizens are of great importance.
