Nigeria Secures Strong Global Backing Against Terror — Ribadu

National Security Adviser (NSA) Nuhu Ribadu says Nigeria is now receiving significant international backing in its ongoing fight against insurgency and terrorism.

Ribadu revealed that several global partners—including the United States, France, the United Kingdom, and others—are joining efforts to help Nigeria defeat violent groups that have troubled the country for nearly 20 years.

He noted that President Bola Tinubu was deeply troubled by the recent abduction of schoolchildren and their teachers in Niger State, pausing official engagements to focus on the situation. Ribadu conveyed the president’s appreciation to Bishop Bulus Yohanna for his cooperation, patience and accurate information during the crisis.

Ribadu, who led a federal delegation on a sympathy visit to the Catholic Diocese of Kontagora and families of the abducted students of St. Mary’s Catholic Nursery, Primary and Secondary School in Agwara LGA, assured that government response would be swift and decisive.

He urged unity, warning Nigerians not to allow criminals to create division or fear.

According to the NSA, Nigeria will overcome the insurgency with both national determination and the growing support of its international allies.
