Nigeria: Airstrikes Hit Terrorists Camps in Tangaza LG, Impact Assessment Report Awaited - Sokoto Govt

The African Democratic Congress demands full disclosure on the U.S. Africa Command airstrike in Sokoto, citing concerns over sovereignty and government transparency.

  • On Thursday, the African Democratic Congress criticised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over U.S. AFRICOM airstrikes in Sokoto State, calling it a security failure.
  • ADC argued that foreign military forces carrying out direct attacks on Nigerian soil show the administration's inability to handle security challenges, while Nigeria appeared mainly to provide an intelligence role.
  • ADC demanded to know who planned and executed the strike, the identities and number of those allegedly killed, and criticised Nigerians first learning via a social media post by the U.S. President.
  • ADC cautioned that confusing security cooperation with surrendering responsibility could weaken national unity, warning foreign troops operating in Nigeria is unsustainable and risks Nigeria's sovereignty and long-term strategic interests.
  • ADC questioned why, despite historic security spending, Nigeria could not lead the mission if it had the intelligence, and said the federal government of Nigeria's claim of `collaboration` raises serious questions about operational control and accountability.
