The Deputy Spokesperson for the House of Representatives, Philip Agbese, has praised the Nigerian Armed Forces for their growing pressure on terrorist networks and banditry across the country. In a statement, Agbese highlighted recent military operations that resulted in the neutralization of 1,487 terrorists, rescue of 777 kidnapped victims, and arrest of 354 suspects.
He commended the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, the Chief of Defence Staff, General Olufemi Oluyede, and the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Waidi Shaibu, for their strategic and operational leadership in the campaign against terrorism and insurgency. The figures released by the Defence Headquarters indicate that the military has been increasingly taking the battle to criminal groups rather than merely responding to attacks.
