Nigeria: At least 30 dead in Kaduna State Attack

Pro-government narrative

Nigeria isn't sitting still — President Tinubu has approved a major military expansion adding 28,000 soldiers and four new army divisions to confront the violence tearing through the north. Joint U.S.-Nigerian forces have already eliminated the Islamic State's second-in-command, suggesting tangible counterterrorism progress. Combined with a record $4 billion defense budget, the measures signal a government that is serious about restoring security.
