Counterterrorism Shock: Nigeria and the US say they killed Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, described as ISIS’s global second-in-command, in a joint Lake Chad Basin operation, with Trump calling it “flawlessly executed” and Tinubu confirming the strike that also hit his lieutenants. Fresh Blow to Security: Even as the raid was announced, reports emerged that suspected Islamist militants abducted 42 pupils and children in Borno’s Askira-Uba, renewing fears over school safety and weak local protection. Sahel Power Shifts: Mali’s crisis deepened as coordinated attacks by JNIM and the Azawad Liberation Front exposed how fragile junta control remains, while ECOWAS lawmakers urged a stronger regional response as Sahel states’ ties with the bloc strain. Niger Politics & Justice: In Niger State, an ADC governorship aspirant faced pressure to withdraw over alleged N3bn rice contract fraud, while Boko Haram bomber Kabiru Sokoto appealed his terrorism life sentence, arguing delays were beyond his control. Local Policing: Niger State police arrested four fraud suspects in a vehicle scam and recovered 67 rustled cattle after a gun duel.
