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.

Peter Obi Raises Concerns Over Nigeria’s Hunger Index Ranking

Isaac Fayose Criticizes Government Over Taxation and Insecurity
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose has spoken about what he considers one of the country’s biggest problems, stating that many Nigerians are worried about government taxation, insecurity, and the increasing rate of kidnappings for ransom.
He lamented the situation and criticized the government, arguing that these issues have become deeply rooted and that there appears to be no lasting solution in sight.
According to him “In Nigeria we have two governments. One is collecting tax, the other one is collecting ransom. Both of them have one thing in common which is to make life difficult for their people.
The one that is collecting tax without doing anything will come and share you rice and semolina. The one that is collecting ransom is doing giveaway on social media.”
