Gobir explained that the group operates with a religious ideology and is equipped with advanced weaponry.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cOur assessment shows that LAKURAWAS is active in about five local government areas across the state<\/em>,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

Gobir expressed concern over this development, especially as the state is already grappling with widespread banditry.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe threat is expanding<\/em>,\u201d he said, adding that security agencies are working diligently to counter this new danger.<\/p>\n

The Deputy Governor highlighted the state\u2019s ongoing collaboration with federal security forces to safeguard lives and properties.<\/p>\n

He emphasized various measures the state government has implemented to address these security challenges and hoped that insights from the National Defence College study tour would help authorities understand the evolving threats and devise effective strategies for securing peace.<\/p>\n

Air Vice Marshal Titus Zuwahu Dauda, leader of the visiting delegation, provided background on the college, which was founded in 1992 as Nigeria\u2019s premier military institution.<\/p>\n

He explained that the college trains officers from the military, police, and strategic agencies, preparing them for high-level responsibilities. So far, 2,982 participants have graduated, including representatives from 30 African and Asian nations.<\/p>\n

At the tour\u2019s conclusion, Dauda stated, that the team would present an oral and written report on their observations and recommendations for improving security in the state.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
