The Northern Elders said it indicates an escalation in the devastating state of insecurity in the Northwest.
As reported by Leadership, the ACF national publicity secretary, Professor Tukur Muhammad-Baba, made this known in a statement issued on Monday, November 11.
Tukur said the Lakurawa insurgents are terrorising communities, sacking security agents and local vigilante outfits, and forcing compliance to its brand of the justice system.
The northern leaders urged the security agencies to move fast and decapitate the Lakurawa terror gangs with all the human and material arsenal at their disposal, without hesitation.
“Thus, the group should not be toyed with in any form and must be processed and treated with all seriousness. Lakurawa, at this incipient stage of its emergence, must not be tolerated or allowed to entrench itself in our communities through benign neglect and kid-glove treatment as was the case with Boko Haram insurgency, farmer-herder clashes, and banditry in the Northeast, North central, and Northwest areas, respectively”.
