Senator Lawan, others commissioned mosques in Jakusko

By: Yahaya Wakili

Senator Ahmed Ibrahim Lawan, Ph.D., GCON, President of the Ninth Senate, has today arrived in his Yobe North Senatorial District and proceeded to pay his respects to the Emir of Bade, His Royal Highness, Alhaji Abubakar Umar Suleiman, CFR.

Senator Ahmed Ibrahim Lawan, thereafter, was joined by His Royal Highness, the Chief of Staff to the Executive Governor of Yobe State, Alhaji Abdullahi Yusuf Gashua, and the Yobe State Commissioner for Budget and Economic Planning, Alhaji Mohammed Garba Gagiyo, to commission a mosque built and dedicated to his late mother, Hajiya Halima Ibrahim, in Jakusko local government area of Yobe state.

“While my mother was alive, the people of Daklam village, where the mosque is located, reached out to her to build a mosque and Islamiyya (School for Islamic Education) for their community.

“My dear mother was able to keep to her promise of building the school, but death made it impossible for her to deliver on her promise of building the mosque” he said.

After her demise, we embarked on building the mosque on her behalf. We made this sacrifice to fulfill her promise and to make this memorial mosque part of her good deeds while she was alive.

Therefore, the reward for this mosque is dedicated to her as our mother and the person who initiated the intention of building this mosque.

May Allah (SWT) forgive her shortcomings and grant her soul eternal rest in Aljannatul Firdaus. Ameen. He prayed.

Airstrike Hits ISWAP Enclave in Tumbuma Baba, scores Nutrialised

By: Zagazola Makama

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF), under the Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai (OPHK), conducted a successful Air Interdiction (AI) mission at a terrorists’ hideout in the Southern Tumbuns general area in the Lake Chad of Borno, killing scores of the terrorists.

Intelligent sources told Zagazola Makama that the precision air strike, which took place at about 2100 hours on 5 May 2025, targeted a major terrorists’ concentration camp located in the Tumbuma Baba axis of Lake Chad.

The sources said that the offensive was in continuation of a decisive Operation KALACHEN WUTA II, aimed at denying terrorists the freedom to execute large-scale attacks during the Eid el-Kabir period.

The sources said that Intelligence and Battle Damage Assessment (BDA) reports confirmed that several terrorists were neutralised during the strike, and key logistics under heavy foliage were destroyed.

The sources said that the strikes followed credible intelligence on planned coordinated attacks by the insurgents before, during, and after the Eid festivities. The mission was meticulously planned and executed to forestall such threats and sustain pressure on terrorist elements operating in the Lake Chad fringes.

“We observed significant secondary explosions, indicating the presence of arms and fuel storage. Multiple terrorists were seen fleeing the area, while several others were eliminated during the strike,” the source said.

The sources said efforts are ongoing to gather further feedback, as well as to assess the operational impact of the interdiction.

He added that preliminary signs suggest a high level of disarray and panic within the terrorists’ ranks, with reports of attempted regrouping under surveillance.
