 ZIMBABWEAN COUPLE DEPORTED OVER SECRET BURIAL OF CHILD IN BOTSWANA A Zimbabwean couple has been deported from Botswana after secretly burying their child without notifying authorities. Motilinah Mpofu and Christopher Ncube were convicted on Thursday of concealing a death after they allegedly dug a grave for their child in the dead of night. The Gaborone court heard the child had died suddenly.

 U.S bolsters Nigeria's military with supplies in security partnership


The United States has delivered critical military supplies to Nigeria to bolster the West African nation's operations, the U.S. military's Africa Command (AFRICOM) said on Tuesday, Reuters reported.


The delivery came after the U.S. carried out a strike targeting Islamic State militants in northwest Nigeria last month.


AFRICOM said in a post on X that the delivery in the Nigerian capital Abuja "supports Nigeria's ongoing operations and emphasises our shared security partnership".


AFRICOM did not specify what kinds of equipment it had delivered to Nigeria, which has been battling Islamist insurgents in the northeast for the past 15 years as well as criminal kidnapping gangs, mostly in the northwest.


Last month, AFRICOM said the U.S. military had carried out an airstrike in Sokoto state in coordination with Nigerian authorities and had killed multiple Islamic State militants.


Nigeria’s foreign ministry said the strike was part of ongoing security cooperation with the U.S., involving intelligence sharing and strategic coordination to target militant groups.


Reuters reported last month that the U.S. had been conducting intelligence-gathering flights over large parts of Nigeria since late November.
