President Bola Tinubu has been urged to tackle the rising insecurity bedevilling the country, in the aftermath of the killing of an army Brigadier General, Oseni Braimah, and other soldiers on April 8, 2026, during an attack on the Damboa Military Base in Borno State.
The Tinubu-led Nigerian government was asked to “identify, name, and shame sponsors of terrorism, while taking concrete steps to cut off their financial and logistical networks.”
These were contained in a press release on Friday by the group, Prayer And Support For The Nigerian Armed Forces and Other Security Agencies (PSNAFSA) signed by the convener, Mary Abayomi-Fatile.
“This heinous and cowardly act is a stark indication of the grave dangers our servicemen and women confront daily in defence of Nigeria’s sovereignty.
“PSNAFSA sends its deepest condolences and heartfelt commiseration to the families of Brigadier General Braimah and all the fallen soldiers. We share in their grief and pray that Almighty God grants them the strength to bear this irreplaceable loss, and also grants the departed eternal rest,” the release said.
“#PSNAFSA calls for a resolute national will to end these unwarranted killings of military personnel. The implications of continued attacks on our troops are far-reaching, affecting morale, operational effectiveness, and national security at large. The time to act decisively is now.
“We urge the Federal Government and all relevant stakeholders to identify, name, and shame sponsors of terrorism, while taking concrete steps to cut off their financial and logistical networks. The channels through which arms and ammunition are trafficked into the country must be effectively blocked, and those complicit brought to justice without delay.
“This fight must transcend the military alone, it is a collective national responsibility. Nigerians must unite in purpose, support security agencies, and contribute actively to intelligence gathering and vigilance within their communities.”
