FCT, Abuja – Nuhu Ribadu, the national security adviser (NSA), has vowed that security agencies will flush out the Lakurawa terrorist group from Nigeria.

‘Tinubu will defeat you’, Ribadu to Lakurawa

Speaking at the opening ceremony of the comptroller-general of the Customs conference in Abuja on Wednesday, November 13, Ribadu accused Lakurawa of daring Tinubu. According to him, ‘nobody dares President Bola Tinubu and gets away with it’.

He said:

“Hundreds of bandits are killed today, everyday. Tinubu gains. You move everywhere in our own country today, free of fear; Tinubu gains. Things are changing.

“These so-called Lakurawa or whatever you call them, they are making a mistake. Nobody ever dares Tinubu and win; nobody. They have come at a wrong time. Nobody has ever defeated Tinubu, and you are going to be defeated, and we will kick you out of Nigeria.”

He added:

“This is Nigeria of 2024. And this is a Nigeria where I can assure you the critics will be quiet. One after the other, things will change in our country, and it is already changing.”
