Former Sokoto State Governor Aminu Tambuwal has lauded the US military and its Nigerian counterpart for airstrikes against terrorists in Sokoto State. Mr Tambuwal, the senator representing Sokoto South, in a statement on Friday, lauded the Nigerian-U.S. collaboration.

Tambuwal said: “I commend the courage and professionalism of our military and security forces, who continue to work tirelessly, often in collaboration with international partners, to confront terrorism and banditry under extremely challenging conditions.

“Their sacrifice and commitment to restoring peace and stability deserve our full support and cooperation.” He urged communities to remain calm and law-abiding as relevant authorities clarify the circumstances surrounding the operation.

“It is important to reassure the public that counterterrorism operations are targeted at criminal and terrorist elements who threaten our collective safety, and not at innocent civilians who are themselves victims of insecurity.

He urged community leaders, traditional institutions, and residents to continue working closely with security agencies by sharing credible information and resisting misinformation that could heighten fear or tension.
