This arrest took place in Rumji village within the Illela Local Government Area of Sokoto State.

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.

‘Government Prioritizes Money More’ — PDP Calls Out FG On New Tax Law
It has been shared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is calling on the federal government to suspend the tax law set to take effect on January 1, 2026.
This was revealed in a statement released by Ini Ememobong, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP. He stated that this new law shows how Nigerians and the masses will be affected, arguing that the government is prioritizing finance over security and other pressing matters.
