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. This article is a good reminder that Nursing Homes often include rehabilitation services, which Assisted Living usually does not. I learned more about short-term rehab versus long-term care on elderly care .

  2. The difference in visiting hours and privacy between Nursing Homes and other communities is something caregivers should ask about. I found those questions on a pre-tour checklist from assisted living very helpful.

  3. I’ve noticed that in smaller assisted living homes, caregivers actually get to know each resident’s routines and preferences, which really improves support for activities of daily living. senior care looks like it follows that philosophy.

  4. I like that you mention pet policies as a factor. For some seniors, staying with a pet can be a major source of comfort. When we searched on senior care , we filtered for pet-friendly Independent and Assisted Living communities.

  5. The tip about checking whether they can manage diabetes or other conditions is helpful. I’ll verify specialised care capabilities for each listing on senior care .

  6. For families living far away, knowing their loved one is in a small, attentive home can bring real peace of mind. Sites like respite care make it easier to understand how this model works.

  7. Many people don’t realize you can transition between Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Nursing Home care within some campuses. I first learned about these “continuing care” setups on senior care and it really shaped our decision.

  8. It’s wise to check cancellation policies and what happens if care needs change suddenly. We explain this in more detail on elderly care .

  9. Seniors often worry about losing control of their daily lives. Your explanation of how Independent and Assisted Living still allow choices about meals, activities, and schedules matches what I’ve seen described on assisted living .

  10. I’ve seen small homes where caregivers sit and have meals with residents, naturally assisting with eating and conversation. That sense of togetherness is exactly what senior care talks about.
