 Meta to end end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages Meta is ending end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages, a feature the company says will no longer be available after May 8, 2026. Unlike WhatsApp, Instagram never offered encryption to all users or as a default; only select users in certain regions could opt in on a per-chat basis. A Meta spokesperson explained that the decision comes due to low adoption. “Very few people were opting in to end-to-end encrypted messaging in DMs, so we’re removing this option from Instagram in the coming months,” the spokesperson said. “Anyone who wants to keep messaging with end-to-end encryption can easily do that on WhatsApp.” Meta’s messaging strategy has shifted multiple times over the years.

 President Tinubu welcomes the freed Kebbi schoolgirls, charges the security forces to rescue others still in captivity 

President Bola Tinubu has welcomed the release today of the 24 schoolgirls abducted by terrorists in Maga Kebbi last Monday. 


Terrorists struck at the school at dawn on November 17 and abducted the girls, moments after a military detachment left the premises.


The Kebbi incident triggered some other copycat kidnappings in Eruku in Kwara State and Papiri in Niger State. 


All 38 kidnapped victims in Eruku were freed on Sunday. The same day, the Niger State chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria said 50 of the missing students of the Catholic School in Niger have been found in their parents' homes. 


President Tinubu applauded the security agents for all the efforts made to secure freedom for all the victims taken away by the terrorists. 


He tasked the security agents to make more efforts to rescue the remaining students still being held captive.


“ I am relieved that all the 24 girls have been accounted for. Now, we must put as a matter of urgency more boots on the ground in the vulnerable areas to avert further incidents of kidnapping. My government will offer all the assistance needed to achieve this,” President Tinubu said.
