Nigerian Troops Arrest Notorious Terrorist Leader Habu Dogo
Troops involved in Operation Fansa Yanma in northwest Nigeria have made significant strides in their efforts to combat terrorism by arresting a notorious leader known as Abubakar Bawa Ibrahim, also referred to as Alisa Habu Dogo.
This arrest took place in Rumji village within the Illela Local Government Area of Sokoto State.
Major General Edward Buba, the Director of Defence Media Operations, issued a statement confirming that Habu Dogo is a wanted figure on the security agencies’ watch lists in both Nigeria and Niger Republic due to the cross-border nature of his terrorist activities.
Also, troops operating in the southeastern part of Nigeria successfully apprehended seven commanders and operatives linked to the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and the Eastern Security Network (ESN).
The accomplishments of the troops during this operational period have been impressive.
They neutralized a total of 187 terrorists, demonstrating their determination to dismantle terrorist networks.
Additionally, the military arrested 262 individuals suspected of being involved in terrorist activities, underscoring their proactive approach to tackling insecurity.
In a further effort to secure the safety of citizens, troops rescued 147 victims who had been kidnapped, bringing relief to families affected by these heinous acts.
The military also recovered a significant cache of arms, which is vital in reducing the firepower of terrorist groups operating in the area.
These operations highlight the dedication of the Nigerian military to restoring peace and security in affected regions.
The ongoing collaboration between various security agencies and the military aims to ensure that individuals engaged in terrorism and related activities are brought to justice, thus contributing to a safer and more secure Nigeria.
Former US President and first Black president, Barack Obama, speaks on leadership and gender. He spoke about how it would be nice for women to be in charge every now and then, as it would strike a balance and advance the government.
“Even when I was President, I sometimes fantasized about if you put women in charge of every government for like two years, and then just kind of saw, ‘All right, how are things going?’”
“I have a strong belief that things wouldn’t be perfect, but they’d be better. I’m confident about that. I really do,” he added.
Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, speaks on the state of the country and President Tinubu’s reign.
He analyses it and shares how Tinubu has made tough decisions. “About three years ago, President Bola Tinubu assumed office amid some very significant and structural challenges, and physical challenges.”
“His administration chose to confront the long-standing distortions rather than postpone them, and those decisions were indeed very difficult and were not politically convenient. And because of those decisions, Nigerians have borne some real costs.”
“Today, however, Nigeria is moving from the difficult work of reforms and stabilisation towards a new phase of growth and shared prosperity.”
Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, speaks on the road projects in Abuja and their completion. He shared that they will be completed and described them as Tinubu’s Christmas gift to citizens.
“We have promised the residents that this will be their Christmas gift by Mr President as part of their Christmas gift so that they’ll go back home and enjoy their Christmas celebration.
“You can imagine the happiness of those who stay here. You know that with these roads, the economy of the affected communities will change,” he said.
