The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) has declared nine additional terrorists wanted, in connection with the rise of a new terror group in Nigeria. The newly identified terrorists include Abu Khadijah, Abdurrahman, Dadi Gumba (also known as Abu Muhammed), Usman Kanin Shehu, Abu Yusuf, Musa Wa’a, Ibrahim Suyeka, BA Sulhu, and Idris Taklakse. The DHQ also confirmed the emergence of a new terrorist group, called “Lukarawas,” which is believed to be operating primarily in northwestern Nigeria. This was revealed by the Director of Defence Media Operations, Maj.-Gen. Edward Buba, when he briefed journalists on the military operations in Abuja. He assured that military operations are ongoing to locate and eliminate the group, with Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) efforts continuing to target the terrorists.
