PRESS RELEASE TROOPS OF OPERATION HADIN KAI FOIL TERRORIST ASSAULT AT MALLAM FATORI, NEUTRALISE OVER 80 INSURGENTS INCLUDING HIGH-PROFILE COMMANDERS Troops of the Joint Task Force (North East) Operation HADIN KAI (OPHK) in the early hours of Wednesday successfully repelled a coordinated and simultaneous five-pronged terrorist attack on own positions at Mallam Fatori in Sector 3. The terrorists, who advanced in large numbers on foot and deployed armed drones in a desperate bid to breach the defences of locations of troops, particularly along the frontage of Bravo Company from the Duguri general area, were met with overwhelming resistance. Having maintained full situational awareness of the battlespace, troops had anticipated the attack and deliberately prepared an offensive-defensive battle designed to decisively defeat and annihilate the assault elements. Through disciplined fire control, coordinated manoeuvre and superior tactical execution, the attackers were engaged, disrupted and routed in disarray, with no fewer than 80 terrorists neutralised during the engagement. Additionally, the firefight was further reinforced by precision of close air support from the Air Component of Operation HADIN KAI, complemented by rapid strike passes from allied Nigerien air assets, which compounded the pressure on the fleeing insurgents. Exploitation of the engagement area led to the recovery of a substantial cache of weapons, ammunition and combat enablers, including 52 AK-47 rifles, 8 PKT machine guns, 7 RPG tubes, 5 General Purpose Machine Guns (GPMGs), over 3,000 rounds of assorted 7.62mm ammunition, 21 RPG bombs, 9 locally fabricated IEDs, multiple magazines, communication radios and components of armed drones deployed by the terrorists. Despite the scale and intensity of the assault, own troops recorded minimal casualties, with four soldiers wounded in action and promptly stabilised, while follow-on Battle Damage Assessment of air interdictions remains ongoing. Significantly, the operation resulted in the neutralisation of three high-profile terrorist commanders, namely Mallam Abdulrahman Gobara, Mallam Ba Yuram and Abou Ayyuba, who were key figures in coordinating and leading the failed assault. Furthermore, several other identified fighters were eliminated during the engagement, including Zarkawi, Ba Bunu, Rawa Fannami, Abowor Suwurti, Bulama Mil, Abu Aisha, Suleimana, Abu Rijal, Abu Ali, Abba Gana Kawiyya and Ahmodu Hirasama. The elimination of these commanders and fighters represents a severe disruption to the terrorist command structure and operational capability within the axis. This decisive victory represents a major operational setback for the terrorist network and further underscores the growing combat effectiveness, resilience and tactical superiority of Operation HADIN KAI forces across the Theatre. The failed attack clearly contradicts recent misleading propaganda and false narratives suggesting that troops are overwhelmed or experiencing setbacks. On the contrary, troops remain firmly in control of all locations, maintaining dominance through sustained offensive operations, effective joint force integration and high morale. Operation HADIN KAI reassures the general public that the security situation in Mallam Fatori and its environs remains firmly under control, while urging citizens to remain vigilant and disregard unverified reports intended to undermine ongoing military operations. The Military High Command commended the troops for their gallantry and resilience, urging them to sustain the operational tempo.

When dating an independent woman, you must be strong enough to receive texts like "Baby I'm in Japan, I forgot to tell you?"

And now his watch is ended. Seven years, hundreds of shifts, thousands of bleeps and one pandemic later… I’m the Med Reg no more. It was the best of jobs. It was the worst of jobs. But most of all, it’s over. ✌️

This was me after working 58 hrs in a 72hr period (10hr rest in 3 days) because of severe manpower shortage. I almost collapsed mid-surgery and had to drink coke using NG tube as straw so I could stand long enough to complete the case. Now I'm finding out I'm "useless" on X.

@AngyaLois @Banjo_Dr Thank you Angya🥳🥳

@Banjo_Dr @ItodoMD I see you I see all the efforts you put into your work And I appreciate you for your effort 🥰

I want to fall deeply in love next year, and not hold back. Completely finished! Like, I want to see my own person and my chest will be doing gbim gbim: the sparks, the warmth >>>> I want to feel loved too. To be fully immersed in someone who’s willing and committed as I am.

This Happened! I had the privilege of engaging 57 Officers of the Federal Road Safety Corps, Kebbi Area Command at their state headquarters earlier today for over 3 hours Discussions were largely on tiers of healthcare/points of care, referral routes, basic management 1/

The greatest value of marriage for me, is the bet of friendship and nothing reveals how precious and necessary that is, than adulthood. To have someone who is even willing to listen to you and understand you at all, is nothing short of a miracle.
