Abuja (Lord Media): Nigerian President Bola Tinubu has claimed that over 13,000 terrorists were killed in Nigeria last year. He made this assertion during a televised speech.
Tensions continue in Northern Nigeria with jihadist groups and other criminal gangs, resulting in incidents of kidnapping.
The president declared a national security emergency last November to address the wave of abductions and violence.
Since the insurgency by extremist group Boko Haram began in 2009, tens of thousands of civilians have been killed, and millions have been displaced.
