In a shocking turn of events, two policemen lost their lives and over 200 cows were rustled as armed terrorists, believed to be members of the notorious Lakurawa group, launched a devastating attack on Natsini village in Kebbi State.
The terrorists, who have been terrorizing the region for months, ambushed the village in the early hours of the morning, overwhelming the local security forces. Two police officers stationed in the area were killed during a fierce gunfight, while the assailants made off with a substantial number of livestock.
The attack has sent shockwaves through the community, with residents fearing for their safety as the Lakurawa terrorists continue their reign of terror. Authorities have vowed to intensify efforts to track down the perpetrators and bring them to justice, but the incident highlights the growing insecurity in Kebbi and other northern states.
This latest attack adds to the rising toll of violence across the region, raising concerns about the ability of security agencies to maintain control. As the people of Kebbi demand action, the government faces increasing pressure to end the wave of terrorism that has plagued the state and its neighboring areas.
The state police command has yet to release an official statement, but sources within the force have confirmed the tragic loss of their officers. Meanwhile, local leaders are calling for urgent interventions to ensure that such attacks do not escalate further. The situation remains tense, and the search for the attackers continues.
In the wake of this tragedy, the people of Kebbi are left grappling with fear and uncertainty, hoping for swift justice and a restoration of peace to their community.
