 ‘Friend Of A Thief Is A Thief’, Defence Minister Warns Terrorist Sponsors The Minister of Defence, General Christopher Musa (rtd), has cautioned Nigerians against aiding terrorists, insurgents, bandits, or other criminal elements, stressing that anyone who supports criminal activities will face the full weight of the law. General Musa made the warning on Saturday while speaking as the Special Guest of Honour at the Armed Forces Celebration and Remembrance Day 2026 Golf Tournament held at the TYB Golf Resort and Country Club, Yar’Adua Barracks, Abuja. He urged citizens to continue supporting the Armed Forces and other security agencies, noting that the Federal Government has given them a clear mandate to deal decisively with all threats to national security. “I call on all Nigerians to stand with the Armed Forces and security agencies in the quest for peace,” Musa said.  “Those who continue to support bandits, insurgents, terrorists, or criminals must desist immediately.

 Eswatini set to receive another batch of US deportees


Eswatini will receive 11 more third-country nationals deported from the United States this month, the southern African country said, after accepting a first group of five deportees in July.


"The individuals will be kept in a secured area separate from the public while arrangements are made for their return to their countries of origin," said a statement from Eswatini's government released on Sunday evening, Reuters reported.


It did not specify the exact date of their arrival.


President Donald Trump aims to deport millions of immigrants living in the US ‘‘illegally’’ and his administration has sought to ramp up removals to third countries as part of that crackdown.


Wave of deportations


The first five immigrants deported to Eswatini in July were from Vietnam, Jamaica, Laos, Cuba and Yemen.


US Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin said at the time that deportees taken to Eswatini were “so uniquely barbaric that their home countries refused to take them back."


Two others are expected to be repatriated soon, the statement from Eswatini said. Eswatini, a kingdom bordering South Africa, has not disclosed the terms of its deal with the Trump administration and is facing a lawsuit from local activists who claim it was illegal to accept the third-country deportees.


In late June, the US Supreme Court cleared the way for President Donald Trump's administration to resume deporting migrants to countries other than their own without offering them a chance to show the harms they could face. The decision handed the government a win in its aggressive pursuit of mass deportations.


The west African nation of Ghana, in September, also accepted African nationals deported from the United States.
