AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Niamey Airport Security: Niger’s capital Niamey remains on edge after a deadly attack on Diori Hamani International Airport, with reports saying 11 soldiers and 2 civilians were killed, attackers were neutralized, and suspects arrested as the airport resumed operations the same day. Terror Rivalry in the Sahel: Coverage links the attack to the wider fight between JNIM and ISSP, describing how jihadist groups are competing for territory and spreading insecurity across the region. Local Security Response in Niger State: Niger State police say there was no abduction during a suspected bandit attack on a police outpost in Zugurma, Mashegu LGA, but residents also report Lakurawa sightings and road blockages that disrupt travel and daily life. Community Policing Push: In Sokoto, a senior police officer urged traditional and religious leaders, youths, and community groups to strengthen vigilance, intelligence sharing, and resist recruitment by criminal gangs. Health & Rights Watch: Niger’s anti-LGBT law crackdown continues to draw international criticism, while local groups in Niger State call for compulsory genotype testing to reduce sickle cell disease.
