National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu has revealed that major global partners, including the United States, United Kingdom, France, and others, are providing technical support to Nigeria in its fight against terrorism.

Ribadu made the disclosure in Kontagora, Niger State, during a visit to Bishop Bulus Yohanna, Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Northern Region, following the abduction of students from St. Mary’s Private Catholic School in Papiri.

He assured Christian leaders and affected parents that President Bola Tinubu is deeply concerned about the incident, has halted official engagements, and has directed security agencies to ensure the safe return of the kidnapped children.

Ribadu stressed that the Federal Government is fully committed to restoring peace, adding that international partners stand firmly with Nigeria. He said the support from the US, the UK, France, and other nations reinforces the country’s resolve to defeat terrorism and safely recover the abducted students.
