NAF airstrikes destroy terrorist base in North-East

The Nigerian Air Force has announced that its air component has destroyed a major terrorist base in the North-East through precision airstrikes. The operation is part of ongoing efforts to weaken terrorist networks, support ground troops and restore peace to affected communities. According to a statement from NAF authorities, the strike was carried out after intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions identified the location as an active insurgent hideout and logistics hub. Terrorists were seen moving along concealed tracks into structures hidden under thick vegetation, confirming the area as a deliberately concealed enclave. Following this positive identification, NAF aircraft launched a coordinated attack on the site, engaging key buildings and storage points with onboard munitions. The bombardment destroyed several structures believed to house fighters, weapons, fuel and other supplies used to support attacks in the region. NAF officials said the airstrikes […]

FG warns Nigerians on fake diplomatic recruitment scams

The Federal Government has warned Nigerians to beware of fake diplomatic recruitment schemes and fraudulent ambassadorial offers circulating online and offline. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said criminal groups are using fake diplomatic titles, recruitment letters and promises of jobs in foreign missions to defraud and exploit unsuspecting citizens. In a statement issued by the ministry’s spokesperson, Kimiebi Ebienfa, the government raised alarm over individuals and organisations falsely parading themselves as ambassadors or diplomatic envoys. He explained that these groups issue bogus appointment letters, demand large fees for supposed diplomatic postings and sometimes provide fake diplomatic passports, identity cards and vehicle number plates. The ministry stressed that only the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has the constitutional power to appoint and accredit ambassadors. It added that no private organisation, association or individual is allowed to confer diplomatic or […]

Insecurity: US to review aid, humanitarian assistance to Nigeria

The United States government is set to review its financial aid and humanitarian assistance to Nigeria amid growing concerns over insecurity and violence in the country. The move follows new proposals in the US Congress that seek to tie parts of American support to clear security and human rights benchmarks. Lawmakers on the US House Appropriations Committee have advanced a State Department funding bill that would place stricter conditions on assistance to Nigeria. Under the proposed framework, up to 50 per cent of certain funds could be withheld until the US Secretary of State certifies that Nigeria is taking “effective steps” to curb violence and protect civilians. The bill also pushes for stronger accountability measures, including investigations and prosecutions of armed groups and security personnel implicated in abuses. It directs Nigerian authorities to prioritise support for victims, especially internally displaced […]

Jerry Eze recounts ordeal during EFCC alleged money laundering probe

Pastor Jerry Eze has opened up about his emotional ordeal during a six month investigation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over alleged money laundering. He spoke at the Jerry Eze Foundation Business Grant Award Ceremony in Abuja while reacting to recent comments by EFCC chairman Ola Olukoyede about the case. Eze, lead pastor of Streams of Joy International, said the period of the probe was deeply distressing for him. He recalled calling fellow pastors, including Poju Oyemade and Pastor Sarah, to ask what he had done wrong and why he was being targeted when he believed he had done nothing. According to him, the investigation weighed heavily on his mind even though he was confident he had no reason to fear. He said people often see headlines but do not understand the anxiety and pressure that come with […]

Chad deports Nigerians fleeing jihadist violence

Chad has arrested and deported hundreds of Nigerians who fled jihadist violence in the Lake Chad region and sought safety in its territory, Nigerian and humanitarian sources say. Many of those affected are from states in northern Nigeria that have endured years of attacks by Boko Haram and other armed groups. According to Nigerian officials in Borno State, the Chadian authorities recently rounded up irregular Nigerian migrants in several towns and transported them to the border for return to Nigeria. Local sources say some of those detained had lived in Chad for years after fleeing earlier waves of insurgent attacks and had been surviving through informal work and begging. Humanitarian agencies report that thousands of Nigerians remain displaced around the Lake Chad Basin because of ongoing insecurity and repeated attacks by jihadist groups. Many crossed into neighbouring Chad, Niger and […]

Eight children missing after orphanage attack in Kogi

Eight children remain missing after an armed attack on an orphanage in Kogi State, in north-central Nigeria, authorities have confirmed. According to the state’s information commissioner, Kingsley Fanwo, gunmen stormed the unregistered facility on Sunday and abducted 23 children along with the orphanage’s owner. Security forces were able to rescue 15 of the children following what officials described as a rapid and coordinated response. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack. However, security sources indicate the presence of a cell linked to Boko Haram in the area, which has experienced repeated incidents of violence. The commissioner noted that the orphanage was operating without official authorization and was located in a remote area, outside the oversight of relevant authorities. He called on operators of similar institutions to ensure proper registration and coordination with government agencies, particularly given the current security […]

Nigeria’s stability key to Ghana’s security – President Mahama

Ghanaian President John Mahama has underscored the importance of Nigeria’s peace and prosperity to Ghana’s own security, describing the two nations as “twins of the same mother.” Speaking in Accra as Special Guest of Honour and Chief Host at the 4th African Heritage Awards, he said many Ghanaians trace their roots to Nigeria, particularly to Yoruba kingdoms, which makes developments in Nigeria a matter of “keen security interest” for Ghana. Mahama joked that the only real friction between the two countries comes from rivalry over Jollof rice and football, stressing that “otherwise, we are the same people.” Highlighting Nigeria’s population of about 250 million, he explained that Ghana’s prayers for Nigeria’s success stem from both brotherhood and self‑interest, noting that instability could push large numbers of Nigerians toward smaller neighbours like Ghana. He said he wakes up every day praying […]

Nigeria Ghana onion trade resumes after 5 day suspension

Cross border onion trade between Nigeria and Ghana has resumed after Nigerian exporters suspended a five day strike over harassment and seizures in Ghana. President of the National Onion Producers Processors and Marketers Association of Nigeria NOPPMAN Aliyu Maitasamu Isah confirmed that transactions have fully restarted along the Ghana corridor and other export routes. He said the dispute was resolved after high level talks involving Nigeria’s High Commissioner to Ghana and Ghana’s Minister of Trade, who intervened to calm tensions and restore confidence. According to him the agreement led to the release of previously detained trucks and a return to the status quo, allowing traders to operate as they did before the crisis. The strike was called earlier in the week after Nigerian onion traders at Kotoku Market in Accra reported harassment, intimidation and the seizure of trucks loaded with […]

Tinubu approves ₦3.3tr plan to clear power sector debts

President Bola Tinubu has approved a ₦3.3 trillion payment plan to settle long standing debts in Nigeria’s power sector. The move targets obligations owed to power generation companies and gas suppliers that have piled up for more than a decade. According to statements from the presidency, the debts cover legacy obligations accumulated between February 2015 and March 2025 under the Presidential Power Sector Financial Reforms Programme. Following verification and reconciliation, ₦3.3 trillion was agreed as the full and final settlement amount. The intervention is expected to ease the liquidity crisis in the electricity market, improve cash flow to GenCos and gas companies, and enable more reliable generation. Many gas fired plants have been running far below capacity or shut down due to unpaid gas invoices and tariff shortfalls. Officials say the payment plan will be implemented in phases, combining direct […]
