Insecurity: Nigeria’s military collaboration with US has resulted in operational gains – NSA

The National Security Adviser, NSA, Nuhu Ribadu, says the security cooperation between Nigeria and the United States has translated into tangible operational gains.

Ribadu said this on Thursday in Abuja at the inauguration of the US-Nigeria Joint Working Group.

“I would like to place firmly on record Nigeria’s appreciation for the depth, quality and impact of US-Nigeria military and security cooperation.

“Since the November 2025 engagements, this cooperation has translated into tangible operational gains.”

He listed some of the gains to include enhanced intelligence sharing, closer coordination between US AFRICOM and Nigeria’s Defence Headquarters and sustained engagement across Nigeria’s security institutions.

“It has materially strengthened our counter-terrorism posture and situational awareness across multiple theatres of operation” Ribadu said.

The NSA said the engagements had moved decisively beyond dialogue to action and had supported improved target identification and operational fidelity.

He said the engagements had also strengthened joint planning and enabled more effective disruption of terrorist networks and transnational criminal elements.

According to him, these efforts have resulted in the neutralisation of many terrorists, the destruction of logistics hubs, and the interception of key facilitators and logisticians.

He commended the US commitment to the timely delivery of outstanding articles of war such as drones, helicopters, platforms, spare parts, and associated support systems procured over the past five years.

Ribadu said the cooperation had been conducted with respect for Nigeria’s sovereignty, within agreed frameworks, and with a clear emphasis on joint operations, accountability and the protection of civilians.

  1. Hello everyone! Just read this post, and I just had to drop a comment.
    As a 16-year-old guy stuck at home with a disability, I spend a
    lot of time online.

    My parents were getting crushed with massive bank fees for their overseas transfers.
    I decided to step up, so I dug into financial platforms and
    set them up on Paybis.

    The economics are game-changing. First off, Paybis charges zero Paybis fees on the initial debit or
    credit card transaction. After that, the fee is a flat low percentage,
    plus the blockchain network fee. Compared to traditional banks, the
    savings are huge.

    I helped them do the identity verification in under 5 minutes,
    and now they buy USDT directly with credit cards. Paybis supports over 40 fiat currencies!
    Plus, the funds go directly to a private wallet, meaning no withdrawal holds.

    Thanks for the great article, it spot-on describes how I helped
    my family save money!
