AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Counterterrorism Shock: Nigeria and the US confirmed the killing of Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, ISIS/ISIL’s second-in-command, in a joint Lake Chad operation—yet analysts warn the threat won’t fade without sustained pressure. Kidnapping Crisis: In the same region, terrorists abducted 42 schoolchildren in Borno during an early-morning raid on a Government Day Primary and Secondary School. Security on the Ground (Niger): Niger State police say they recovered 67 rustled animals (43 cows, 24 sheep) after gun battles with bandits, and also arrested fraud suspects tied to vehicle scams. Food Prices: Nigeria’s food inflation jumped above headline inflation for the first time in eight months, pushing fresh pressure on household budgets. Politics (Niger): APC House of Reps primaries in Niger State were marred by “imposition” allegations and protests in some constituencies, while Chanchaga’s ticket went to Adamu Abubakar. Regional Power Play: Libya’s LNA staged major exercises near Derna, calling it a message to “friends and foes.”
