No be lie, my people! Nigeria dey face one serious wahala as dem dey hold over 5,000 people wey dem suspect say dem dey involved for terrorism. Na wetin we hear from di National Counter-Terrorism Centre (NCTC) as dem drop dem 2025-2030 strategic plan.
This one don create serious backlog for di court matter wey concern terrorism wey dey pile up like beans for market. NCTC don begin work with di Defence Headquarters and di Federal Ministry of Justice to fast-track di prosecution matter or even dismiss di cases wey no get enough evidence. Dem dey try make sure say people wey no deserve to dey inside prison go free.
Last year alone, dem prosecute 393 cases and 329 people don collect di gavel for terrorism. Dis one don push our conviction rate reach 84% from 41.5% wey we dey see before – na serious improvement be dat! Dem don also release about 1,200 people wey no get strong cases against dem.
As Nigeria dey try scatter terrorism, dem get one new plan wey involve DNA profiling and biometric data. Dis database go help dem know who be who as dem dey pursue di terrorists. Na big move wey fit change di game for di fight against armed groups for di country.
On top all dis, di military dey hot on di heels of Bello Turji wey na notorious bandit wey dey confuse as military operations dey close in on him. Di Theatre Commander, Major General Warrah Idris, don talk say Turji dey panic and dey run up and down like rat wey don see cat. He challenge am make hin show face if e really get any local government wey hin dey control. Na serious challenge be dat, my people!
Idris don insist say no be true say Katsina State government wan release 70 bandits, say na all fake news. E don warn against spreading wrong information, especially di one wey dem dey generate from AI. Di military dey work for hand with Niger and Benin Republic to make sure say dem catch di armed groups wey dey cross border.
For dis year alone, dem don allocate N204.51 billion for security operations wey go support counter-insurgency and internal security. N100 billion go military operations while di Nigeria Police and Security agencies go collect di rest. Dis one no be small amount o!
For now, e clear say na serious battle we dey face for Naija, but with all di plans and strategies wey dey on ground, we fit hope say our security situation go improve. Na wetin I go yan for now, keep your ears open for more gist as e dey hot!
