The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) commends the Nigerian Government and its security forces for the recent successful operation that led to the capture of two high-ranking members of the Ansaru terror group.

The arrest of Mahmud Muhammad Usman (alias Abu Bara'a) and his deputy, Mahmud al-Nigeri (alias Malam Mamuda), as announced by the National Security Adviser, Malam Nuhu Ribadu, is a significant victory in Nigeria's fight against terrorism. Ansaru, a dangerous splinter faction, has been responsible for many of the country's most brutal attacks over the past decade.

This breakthrough, which was the result of sustained intelligence efforts, shows the bravery and professionalism of our security agencies. The digital evidence recovered from this operation is a valuable resource for dismantling terror networks and preventing future attacks.

It also reflects a more advanced security strategy that prioritizes precision, intelligence, and long-term National Security.

The NUJ salutes the men and women who risk their lives daily to keep our country safe. We urge the Government to continue supporting our security institutions and ensure that justice is served quickly and transparently.

Terrorism threatens our peace, development, and democratic values. As Journalists and defenders of the public interest, the NUJ stands in solidarity with all efforts to restore lasting peace and security in Nigeria.

We encourage all Nigerians to remain vigilant, support security efforts, and resist narratives that seek to divide us. Together, we will overcome.
