As the security challenges in Nigeria persist, at least 72 persons were killed last week (November 7-13) by non-state actors across the country.

The figure consists of at least 12 security personnel including a serving brigadier general and a retired air vice-marshal. About 61 of the victims were civilians.

Findings by PREMIUM TIMES, as part of its weekly review of attacks by armed persons, shows that four geopolitical zones recorded at least a case while the South-south and South-west zones had no reported case.

Of the cases, the North-west recorded the highest number of incidents and fatalities, closely followed by the North-east, South-east and North-central in that order.

This newspaper compiled the incidents from media reports. Thus, unreported cases were not included.

With a total number of 11 incidents and 72 fatalities, the figure last week far exceeded that of the previous week during which less than 20 cases were recorded.

Here are last week’s killings as compiled from media reports.

Villagers said many others were wounded after the gunmen opened fire on people mourning the death of a woman.

Pro-Active Actions Needed

A security expert, Timothy Avele, said the cases may continue to rise if a different step and approach to tackling insecurity in the country is not taken.

He said the security agents cannot keep doing the same thing and expect different results.

“I pray it never gets worse than this. Sadly, there’s no indication that it won’t get worse in the coming months, in as much as we keep doing things same way over and over again.

“No proactive measures through Intelligence-based policing, just reactive as usual,” he said.

Posterity shall judge Mr president to be a failure....

Now I hardly have light for 4hrs daily which wasn't so before
Now I buy 1liter of fuel for 140naira... Because the economy is in ruin
Now NOI keeps lying about paying for subsidy whereas no money was paid to those guys
Nigeria have to borrow money to pay civil servants
A lot of white elephant projects in on
A lot of industries have retrench workers because of the harsh economic climate



And he is saying prosperity judging him right....

If you have soft spots for terrorists, you are indirectly sponsoring terrorism.

If you are a pro-sharia, you are indirectly sponsoring terrorism. As in, you can't be a sharia advocate without being a terrorist.

If you are finding it difficult to proscribe bandits/killer herdsmen, you are indirectly sponsoring terrorism.

If you come out on air and tell the masses that banditry in Nigeria is not a federal offence, you are a terrorist.

If you can give terrorists presidential pardon and reintegrate them into the society, forget it, YOU ARE A FULL BLOWN TERRORIST.

The Federal Government has said the allegation by a US-based non-profit organisation that the Nigerian government was sponsoring terrorism is “a disgusting distraction orchestrated by those seeking to weaken the ongoing massive onslaught against terrorism and banditry.”

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, in a statement on Sunday, said “the so-called Global Advocates for Terrorism Eradication is a pesky irritant that should be ignored, especially because it is as confused as it is irresponsible.”

He said, “This organisation called GATE is not even worth the ink with which its name is written. How can a serious organisation accuse a government that is tackling the twin evil of terrorism and banditry with uncommon determination of sponsoring terrorism?

“Is it not curious that this organisation has chosen this particular time, when terrorists are either surrendering in droves or running helter-skelter, as a result of a renewed offensive against them by the military, to orchestrate a distraction? What could be GATE’s motive if not to weaken the fight against terror and banditry?

“GATE and its sponsors should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves and should quit trying to distract our gallant troops who are doing everything possible, including making the supreme sacrifice, to keep our country safe.”

Mohammed said the fact that GATE, in making its absurd allegation, “relied on the words of a thoroughly discredited,
fake-news-peddling former Nigerian Navy intelligence officer” has shown the hollowness of its allegation.

“In the fight against terrorism, Nigeria has availed itself creditably by tackling home-grown terrorists with links to global terrorist organisations. We make bold to say that no administration in Nigeria has risen to the challenge of terrorism like the Buhari’s administration has done.

“The acquisition of a myriad of platforms, the boost to the morale of our fighting forces and the leadership provided by President Muhammadu Buhari have combined to put our gallant troops in good stead to frontally confront and put on the run the terrorists. Fittingly, Nigeria’s efforts at tackling terrorism have been hailed globally.

“What our gallant men and women need at this time is the support, encouragement and prayers of all, not the distracting antics of a relevance-seeking, feckless organisation masquerading as a terrorism eradication advocate”, he said.

President Muhammadu Buhari has commiserated with the families of soldiers killed by fighters of the Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP) in Borno state.

The terrorists on Saturday morning invaded Askara town in Askira Uba LGA of Borno state in a long convoy of gun trucks and engaged the troops in gun duel.

The army has confirmed that a gallant senior officer brigadier-general Dzarma Zirkusu and three soldiers were killed by the insurgents while on their way to supports troops who were fighting the terrorists.

Reacting to the soldiers’ death, President Buhari in a statement issued by his media aide, Garba Shehu, said the deceased paid the supreme sacrifice in a very rare display of gallantry.

He said, “Nigeria has lost brave soldiers. I salute their courage. May their souls Rest In Peace. General Zirkusu leaves us sad and devastated. The soldier in him will remain immortal.

“I pray to the Almighty to give you and the bereaved families the strength and courage to bear this irreparable loss.”

The president also urged the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Faruk Yahaya to accept his heartfelt condolences and that of the nation.

Bandits have slaughtered the village head and killed eight others in Tungar Ruwa in Anka local government area of Zamfara State.

The incident occurred at midnight on Wednesday. PREMIUM TIMES gathered that the attack lasted for several hours.

The police spokesperson in the state, Mohammed Shehu, confirmed the attack but he did not give details.

Anka is one of the local government areas in Zamfara under incessant attacks by bandits. Rural people displaced by the attacks have flooded the headquarters of the local government area and Maru as well as Talata Mafara local government areas.

A source, Anas Mustapha, told this newspaper that the bandits invaded the village on motorbikes and started shooting into the air as they rode towards the village head’s residence.

They then took him out and slaughtered him in the presence of some of his people that were also gathered by the bandits.

“Eight other people were confirmed dead when the bandits left after the attack. But our understanding is that they (bandits) came for the village head. You know when they feel a particular leader in a community is giving them troubles, they do kill him instantly,” Mr Mustapha said.

He said the bandits also stole foodstuff and domestic animals in the village but did not kidnap anyone

This is coming a few days after bandits laid ambush on a road and killed seven mobile police officers on patrol duty in the state.

The Minister of Defence, Major General Bashir Magashi (retd.) on Friday said that the increased security challenges across the country is the reason for the deployment of the military in the internal security operation.

Magashi, however, commended the efforts of the military, particularly, the Nigerian Air Force at focusing on doctrinal developments to address the security challenges confronting the country.

The minister stated this at the graduation ceremony of 13 officers of the Airforce War College Course 7/2021 held at the Nigeria Airforce officers Mess, Makurdi.

Magashi was represented by the director of military affairs, Federal Ministry of Defence, Sunday Musa, who said that terrorism, kidnapping, insurgency, as well as ethnic religion crises are the major challenges testing the nation democracy.

He said, “Our country is currently experiencing different forms of security challenges, these include terrorism, insurgency, armed banditry and kidnapping. Similarly, our democracy is also being tested by ethno-religion crises as well as incidents of farmer/herders conflicts.

The minister said that the present regime of the President, Major General Muhammad Buhari (retd) has continued to support the military, stating that the recent induction of new platforms including the JF-17 Thunder and the A-29 Super Tucano aircraft were part of the efforts put in place to decisively end the security challenges.

While commending the armed forces and security agencies for their commitment to face security challenges the minister urged all personnel to continue to strive towards excellence and professionalism.

He said, “The changing nature of warfare poses new challenges to security forces. Threats by non-state armed actors are on the rise, creating a significantly more complex strategic environment both at the global and regional levels.

“Your calling demands integrity, dedication, loyalty and a high standard of discipline in the discharge of your duties. Indeed, you have demonstrated all these qualities to a commendable extent, so I can only urge you not to rest on your oars.”

Also, the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Oladayo Amao explained that the Air Force War College which is the highest professional military training institution in the NAF plays a significant role in fostering purposeful training and human capacity development which is one of the key drivers of his vision.

“Indeed, the NAF, like any other organization, cannot satisfactorily fulfil its statutory mandate to justify its continued existence without qualitative skilled manpower which is a critical requirement for attaining professionalism.”
