crime prevention

Nigerian security agencies conducted coordinated operations this week, arresting armed robbery suspects, seizing nearly 500kg of cannabis, and advancing rehabilitation programs for former insurgents as part of broader crime prevention efforts.

Nigeria's military and police are conducting coordinated security operations across several states, including a new anti-terrorism initiative in Kwara State and harbour defence exercises in Lagos, while making arrests in high-profile murder cases.

From foiled kidnappings in Nigeria to drive-by shootings in South Africa, police forces across the continent wage war on two fronts—against sophisticated criminal networks and their own compromised officers.
