Nigeria Dangerously Close to Normalising Terror — Ex-Minister Essien

Former Minister of Lands, Housing and Urban Development, Chief Nduese Essien, has voiced grave concerns over Nigeria’s worsening insecurity, warning the country is “dangerously close to normalising terror.” In a statement, Essien cited recent coordinated attacks and abductions—including the execution of Brigadier General Musa Uba and three soldiers in Borno, 64 kidnapped in Zamfara, 25 female students taken in Kebbi, and over 300 Catholic school pupils abducted in Niger. Essien argues these atrocities have become daily realities, undermining farming, worship, and general life. He faults the Tinubu administration for lacking urgency and for appointing security chiefs lacking strategic defence expertise. Essien claims politicisation and corruption threaten to erode both public trust and the capacity to fight criminal networks. The ex-minister wants a strategy anchored on intelligence-led operations, strong community security, accountability, and targeting sponsors of terrorism regardless of their social […]

Kebbi, Niger Schools’ Abductions: US to Share Intel, Demands Action

The US government has called on Nigeria to swiftly apprehend and prosecute those behind the mass abductions of students and staff in Kebbi and Niger states. Following a series of meetings between Nigerian and US security officials, both countries agreed to create a new joint counterterrorism working group, increase intelligence sharing, and expedite Nigeria’s requests for arms and defense equipment. In Kebbi, 25 girls were kidnapped and the vice-principal was killed at Government Girls Comprehensive Senior Secondary School. In Niger, 303 students and 12 teachers were seized at St. Mary’s Catholic School; 239 kidnapped victims are reportedly nursery/primary children still in the forest. Amnesty International and local organizations warn the attacks threaten educational progress, cause severe trauma, and devastate the future of northern Nigeria. Parents, labor groups, and the Catholic Diocese continue urging swift government and community action.

Is Nigeria Cursed, or Are We the Curse? — Obi Laments Over Insecurity

Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, has decried the country’s worsening insecurity in a heartfelt post. Listing abductions and attacks over the past ten days—including kidnappings of Defence officials, students, worshippers, and farmers—Obi argues Nigeria’s “chaos” is due to collective leadership failures that have allowed lawlessness and violence to thrive. Obi claims no one, not even those tasked with security, is safe and warns that leaders have chosen “comfort over courage, politics over people, and power over purpose.” He insists the tragedies facing Nigerians—school abductions, attacks on worshippers, and erosion of democratic institutions—are not inevitable, but the result of failed governance. Calling for urgent reform, Obi says Nigeria must rise above indifference and excuses, and leaders must protect every community, child, and citizen. “You deserve safety, you deserve peace,” he concludes, urging Nigerians to demand a competent, compassionate […]
