EXCLUSIVE: Pressure Mounts On Tinubu To Sack Matawalle As U.S. Demands Defence Ministers’ Removal Before Security Collaboration Pressure is intensifying on President Bola Tinubu to dismiss Defence Minister Bello Matawalle as the United States reportedly insists on a full overhaul of Nigeria’s defence leadership before committing to deeper security cooperation. Meanwhile, former Chief of Defence Staff, Christopher Musa, met with President Tinubu at the Aso Rock Villa on Monday — his first public engagement with the President since his retirement on October 24, 2025. The meeting has further fueled speculation about possible major security sector changes. #NigeriaPolitics #TinubuAdministration #SecurityReforms

Anambra Sacks Eight Security Operatives Over Assault On Corps Member, Orders Prosecution The Anambra State Government has dismissed eight operatives of the Agunechemba security outfit after they were caught assaulting a female corps member in a viral video. Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s Special Adviser on Community Security, Ken Emeakayi, announced the decision in Awka, stressing that the operatives would also be handed over to the police for prosecution. He described their actions as outside the outfit’s mandate and “utterly condemnable.” The state government vowed to uphold professionalism, accountability, and respect for human rights in all security engagements, warning that any officer found guilty of misconduct will face immediate dismissal. The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) and the victim’s lawyer, Cyrus Onu, have demanded both prosecution and compensation, accusing the operatives of brutality and threatening the corps member. #Anambra #SecurityReform #HumanRights #CorpsMember
