The acting Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Olufemi Oluyede, visited the 8 Division of the Nigerian Army in Sokoto on Sunday as part of efforts to combat the new terror group, Lukarawa.

Olukoyede ordered the troops to crush the new terror group which was reportedly inducing youths in the state into its fold.

The Defence Headquarters had last week identified Lukarawa as a new terror group operating in Kebbi and Sokoto States.

The Director of Defence Media Operations, Maj. Gen. Edward Buba, said the terror group is affiliated with jihadi factions in Mali and Niger, raising security concerns in the northwestern region of the country.

“The emergence of the group is linked to political instability in Mali and Niger, which has fuelled the spread of extremist elements into Nigeria. He explained that this group is a direct fallout of the political instability in these neighbouring countries,” he said.

Speaking with newsmen in the Masallaci community in the Tangaza Local Government Area, Oluyede called on the residents of the community to always give accurate and timely information to the troops to help them in the fight against insecurity.

“I am here to assess my troops. You see, there will always be challenges. The issue is how we react to these challenges. One of the reasons I am here is to charge up my soldiers to rise to the challenge, and that we shall do.

“My charge to the community people is for them to support us. If we don’t get their support we can’t succeed. And if we don’t succeed that means the country won’t be secured. We need the support of Nigerians so that we can have economic prosperity in the country,” Oluyede stated.

Speaking further, he stated, “I am here to see my soldiers to assess their state of readiness and to charge them to continue to do what they have been doing best to secure the country in general.”

It was learnt that the acting COAS visited the Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar and other relevant stakeholders in the state and also held talks with troops of Operation FASAN YANMA in order to motivate them.

Oluyede also visited troops in the Illela Local Government Area of the state where he held meetings with officers of the battalion in the state.

He also met with other security agents and emphasised the need to collaborate.

In a move to dislodge the terrorists, the Nigerian Army has deployed troops of Operation Fasan Yamma in Sokoto and Kebbi States.
