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.

    Sometimes I think about everything we went through and feel the need to write it down after my dad left us without
    a goodbye.

    We lived in Berlin and our house used to mean stability.

    But when the bills started to overflow, we began to lose control.
    We tried to hold on, but in the end, we watched
    our home slip out of our hands.

    I’ll never forget the sound of my mom quietly crying in the living room.
    I knew I coul’n’t just sit there.

    I wanted to give my mom at least one idea to hold onto.
    ’hat’s when I came across stories of people using cryptocurrencies and converting them safely into money through trusted platforms.

    I told my mother she could explor— that—because I wanted
    her to feel a spark of hope again. She looked into
    it, researched for days, and eventually chose Paybis (Paybis).
    She said it felt straightforward enough for her to try.

    I watched her hands shake when she pressed the final button. When it went through, I saw her shoulders relax for the first time in months.

    From that moment, things slowly began to shift.
    My mom handled everything herself, but she always
    said my encouragement gave her courage.

    I understood that hope sometimes comes from unexpected
    places.

    T’day, we’re rebuilding our life piece by piece.

    And every time my mom looks at me and smiles, she reminds me how everything changed the day she found the strength to use Paybis to convert her
    crypto into something we could actually live on.

    This journey shaped who I am.

    My developer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP.
    I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
    But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on several websites
    for about a year and am concerned about switching to another platform.
    I have heard very good things about blogengine.net.
    Is there a way I can import all my wordpress posts into it?

    Any help would be really appreciated!
