JNIM terrorists clashes with rival factions in rare encounter in Nigeria’s Kebbi state

By: Zagazola Makama

A suspected clash between rival terrorists factions has been reported in Kebbi State, raising fresh security concerns in the North-West region.

Sources said the incident occurred on April 4, when a group identified as Jama’at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin (JNIM) claimed it engaged a rival faction described as “Khawarij”.

The group alleged that one fighter was killed and another captured during the encounter, while three motorcycles and about N10 million were recovered.

However, the identity of the opposing group has yet to be independently verified.

Preliminary indications suggest the rival faction may be linked to Boko Haram or one of its splinter groups, though this remains subject to confirmation.

Security sources said the development could represent one of the first reported inter-jihadist clashes in the region.
