Nigeria's Defence Minister has highlighted a critical challenge in the nation's fight against insecurity. He revealed that local informants are actively fueling terrorist operations across the country. According to the minister, this internal support provides terrorists with vital intelligence and resources. Such public complicity significantly hinders the military's ability to neutralize threats effectively. The minister emphasized that the struggle against terrorism is exacerbated by these domestic betrayals. Consequently, the government is facing a complex battle where the enemy is aided by citizens.
