Insecurity senate tells FG to stop rehabilitation of Boko Haram members

The Senate has asked the Federal Government to suspend the rehabilitation and reintegration programme for Boko Haram members. Lawmakers said the country’s worsening security situation makes the policy hard to justify at this time. They also urged security agencies to intensify arrests and prosecution of those behind attacks across the country. The resolution was reached during plenary after senators debated the rising wave of killings, abductions and attacks on serving and retired military personnel. The motion was sponsored by Senator Abdulaziz Yar’Adua. Several lawmakers argued that criminals should not be rewarded while violence continues.

Oyo abduction: Inside terrorists’ plot to stall rescue

Boko Haram terrorists trapped in the Oyo National Park are using improvised explosive devices (IEDs), landmines and diversionary attacks to stall rescue efforts for abducted pupils and teachers in Oyo State. Security sources said the insurgents, believed to be a faction of Boko Haram (JAS) displaced from the North-East, have heavily mined the forest routes and laid booby traps to slow down or repel ground troops. The terrorists are also reportedly using some of the kidnapped children as human shields, making any forceful rescue operation extremely risky and raising fears of mass casualties if troops attempt a direct assault. The Department of State Services (DSS), through the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA), has taken over communication with the abductors after the terrorists insisted on speaking only with the governor, the police commissioner or a top government official. So […]

Bullets before ballots: insecurity threatens 2027 polls; 5,272 killed in 5 months

Seven months to the 2027 general elections, worsening insecurity across Nigeria is casting a shadow over preparations for what should be a watershed democratic exercise, with a staggering 5,272 people killed in just five months amid a resurgence of terrorist attacks and banditry. Before the commencement of campaigns for the 2027 general elections, rising insecurity across parts of Nigeria has become a major source of national concern, undermining public confidence in the electoral process. The country's security situation has continued to deteriorate with increasing attacks on civilians, schools, and military formations, raising serious questions about whether the elections will hold as scheduled. Data from the Global Terrorism Index (GTI) 2025 showed that Nigeria recorded 171 terror attacks in 2025, representing a 43 per cent increase from the 120 attacks recorded in 2024. Terror-related deaths also rose from 513 in 2024 […]

Suspected Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorists have reportedly set ablaze a primary and a secondary school in Chibok Local Government Area of Borno State.

Weapons Looted During Libyan Conflict Found with Extremists in Nigeria – UN

The United Nations has raised serious concern that some weapons looted during the 2011 conflict in Libya have ended up in the hands of extremist groups operating in Nigeria. Speaking at UN Headquarters in New York, Izumi Nakamitsu, the UN Under-Secretary-General and High Representative for Disarmament Affairs, expressed concern over the long-term impact of illicit arms trafficking, noting that the uncontrolled flow of weapons from Libya has created a cycle of instability in the Sahel and West Africa. According to UN officials, arms from Libya’s vast stockpiles were smuggled across porous borders into several Sahel countries, including Niger, Chad, Mali and Nigeria, where they now fuel terrorist violence and organised crime. Security analysts say the uncontrolled flow of these weapons has “created a cycle of instability in the region,” empowering insurgent groups like Boko Haram and ISWAP, as well as […]
