Nigerian Government Vows to Expel Terrorist Group Lukarawas Amid Rising Attacks

The Nigerian government has pledged to eliminate the terrorist group Lukarawas from the country. National Security Advisor Nuhu Ribadu made this commitment at the Comptroller General of Customs' Conference in Abuja on Wednesday.

“This Lukarawas terror group, or whatever it is called, is making a mistake. Nobody ever dares Tinubu and wins. They have come at the wrong time. Nobody has ever defeated Tinubu. We will kick you out of Nigeria,” Ribadu stated.

Ribadu highlighted the Nigerian government’s recent progress in combating insecurity, with hundreds of bandits eliminated over recent months.

Just last week, Nigeria's Defence Headquarters announced the emergence of the Lukarawas terror cell in Kebbi and Sokoto states. In recent days, the group has been causing widespread disruption across various parts of the North-West region.
