 U.S imposes sanctions on former Congo President Joseph Kabila The United States on Thursday imposed sanctions on former Democratic Republic of Congo President Joseph Kabila for his support of ‌Rwanda-backed M23 rebels and for fueling political instability in Congo's troubled east. The U.S. Treasury Department said M23 and its political-military arm, the Congo River Alliance (AFC), had been stoking violent conflict in eastern DRC, resulting in the deaths of thousands of civilians and a mass displacement crisis.

 Societal Concerns Launches National Campaign Against the Killing of Security Personnel


In a bold move to honor Nigeria’s fallen heroes and promote national unity, Societal Concerns Media Network has launched a nationwide campaign titled “Stop the Killing of Our Security Personnel.”


The initiative, spearheaded by Ambassador Oluwayomi Oluwapelumi, aims to raise public consciousness about the alarming rise in attacks on police officers, soldiers, and other security operatives who risk their lives daily to protect citizens and maintain peace.


Speaking during the campaign’s unveiling, Ambassador Oluwayomi described the initiative as a “national call to conscience,” stressing that no nation can thrive when those who safeguard it are constantly under threat.


“Our security personnel are not just uniformed men and women; they are parents, siblings, and breadwinners who deserve respect, protection, and appreciation. This campaign is our voice for justice, empathy, and reform,” she said.


The campaign will feature community dialogues, school sensitization programs, media advocacy, and courtesy visits to security institutions, including the Police, DSS, NSCDC, and the Nigerian Army. It will also mobilize youth and civic organizations to participate in solidarity walks and awareness events across the states.


Societal Concerns Media Network calls on the government, private sector, and citizens to join hands in supporting the security architecture of the nation through partnership, training, and moral reorientation.


As Ambassador Oluwayomi noted, “We cannot build a secure Nigeria if we keep losing those who secure us.”.
