The Nation Newspaper reports a fresh wave of commendation for Nigeria’s security forces and National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu after sweeping May 2026 operations across the country. Security agencies neutralised 317 terrorists and criminals, rescued 221 kidnapped victims, arrested 314 suspects and recovered 93 weapons, counter-terror breakthroughs across regions.
The Community Safety Vanguard praised the military success while urging sustained pressure on remaining networks. It condemned the Oyo school abductions and demanded urgent rescue of victims. From North-East insurgents to South-South oil theft, officials say the operations signal renewed momentum in Nigeria’s security fight. Headlines: “Security Forces Record Major Wins in Nationwide Operations”, “Ribadu, Military Hailed After 317 Terrorists Neutralised”, “Nigeria Steps Up War on Kidnapping and Terror Networks”.
