Residents of Sokoto, Zamfara and Katsina states in the North-west are witnessing what they described as a surge in terror activities following military offensives that led to the killing of many terrorists in the region.
Several residents and terrorism researchers told PREMIUM TIMES that the increased attacks are the fallout of the military offensives.
Although Nigeria’s security agencies have been battling internal terrorists in different parts of the country for about a decade, there have been increased attacks by security agencies at specific periods.
