“NAF Bombs Terrorist Hideouts, Stops Infiltration In Borno”.

The operation, conducted on March 17, 2026, targeted locations in the southern axis of the Lake Chad region following credible intelligence indicating the presence of террорист elements.
In a statement released on Wednesday, the Director of Public Relations and Information, Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame, disclosed that surveillance operations detected insurgent activities around concealed structures hidden within dense vegetation, a method commonly used to avoid detection.
He explained that after confirming the targets through thorough verification processes, NAF air assets launched precision-guided strikes on the identified locations, leading to the destruction of multiple террорист facilities and disruption of their operations.
Preliminary assessments of the damage indicated that the strikes significantly weakened the insurgents’ ability to use the area as a base for launching attacks across the Lake Chad Basin.
In a related development, the NAF, in collaboration with Nigerian Army troops, successfully repelled an infiltration attempt by terrorists in Malam Fatori, Abadam Local Government Area of Borno State, in the early hours of March 18, 2026. Several insurgents were neutralised during the joint operation, preventing a breach of defensive positions and reinforcing security in border communities.
The Air Force noted that the operations underscore its continued reliance on intelligence-driven air power in counterterrorism efforts across the North-East. The Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Hasan Bala Abubakar, reaffirmed the military’s commitment to protecting lives and maintaining national security, while ensuring strict adherence to rules of engagement and international standards on civilian protection.

A heated political exchange has erupted within the African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential race, as camps backing former Vice President Atiku Abubakar’s rivals push back against his claims of superior popularity, especially in the North.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Supporters of Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso rejected Atiku’s assertion that he remains the dominant northern vote-getter, insisting that such claims do not reflect today’s political realities.
The Kwankwasiyya Movement, aligned with a potential Obi-Kwankwaso ticket, dismissed Atiku’s influence in the North as largely elite-driven, arguing that Kwankwaso enjoys more genuine grassroots support.
Former Transportation Minister Rotimi Amaechi also reacted, faulting Atiku’s position and questioning the logic of relying solely on regional identity as a basis for presidential ambition.
Atiku, in a recent interview, had maintained that none of his northern rivals, including Kwankwaso, can match his electoral strength, while downplaying Kwankwaso’s influence beyond Kano State.
His remarks sparked criticism across political circles, with some opposition figures describing them as arrogant and dismissive of other contenders.
Kwankwaso’s camp, however, maintained that both Kwankwaso and Obi have more “organic” support bases compared to politically induced followership, warning that such comments could deepen divisions within the ADC coalition.
Amaechi also argued that the ADC presidential ticket should be determined through a competitive primary rather than consensus, insisting that all aspirants should be tested at the ballot.
The growing disagreement highlights rising tension within the opposition alliance ahead of the 2027 general elections, as key figures intensify positioning for the party’s presidential ticket.
