Insecurity: Military Repel Boko Haram Attack on Adamawa Border Community
Troops of Operation Hadin Kai have repelled an attack by suspected Boko Haram fighters on a border community in Adamawa State.
This was contained in a post shared on X on Saturday by security analyst, Zagazola Makama.
According to Makama, the incident happened on Friday night in Mayo Ladde village, located in Hong Local Government Area of Adamawa.
Makama said the terrorists attempted to enter the community at about 9:00 p.m. but were met with strong resistance from security forces.
“Troops of Operation Hadin Kai, working with other security personnel and members of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF), reportedly responded quickly after receiving a distress call from the area.
“The terrorists attempted to attack the village but were decisively engaged by the troops and forced to retreat,”Makama wrote.
Makama added that no casualties were recorded during the attack, as residents had fled the village before the arrival of the insurgents.
Following the incident, troops have increased patrols and surveillance around Mayo Ladde and other nearby border communities to prevent further attacks and restrict the movement of the terrorists.
Mayo Ladde village lies along a border route linking Askira/Uba Local Government Area and the Sambisa Forest axis in Borno State.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has announced Morocco as winners of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
The CAF Appeal Board ruled in favour of Morocco, declaring that Senegal forfeited the AFCON final by walking off the field during the game.
Morocco were awarded a 3–0 walkover victory.
This decision upholds Morocco’s appeal following the chaotic events in the match.
DAILY POST recalls that the Senegal team briefly walked off the pitch in protest after a controversial penalty was awarded to Morocco late in regulation time.
They were called back to the field by their captain, Sadio Mané, and later won the game 1–0.
CAF determined that this action constituted a violation of Article 84, or the equivalent regulations concerning refusal to play or abandoning the field.
Under AFCON rules, a team that refuses to continue playing or leaves the field without authorization faces elimination and forfeiture of the match.
A total of three operatives of different security agencies in Anambra State collapsed during the inauguration of Anambra State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, on Tuesday.
The incident happened during the parade at the Dr Alex Ekwueme Square in Awka.
The three operatives are one male police operative, another male operative of the Directorate of State Services (DSS) and a female operative of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC.
The police operative collapsed first, followed by the NSCDC operative, who slumped towards the end of the event and was later escorted to an ambulance, after she refused to be moved in a stretcher.
A source said the police operative was later resuscitated, but was still not stable, and was taken in an ambulance to Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital, Amaku Awka.
The collapse of the service officers was attributed to fatigue and the long period of parade under harsh sunny weather.
