 Serena Williams' husband addresses critics over White House UFC event Alexis Ohanian, husband of tennis star Serena Williams, faced backlash after attending President Trump’s 80th birthday celebration at the White House, which doubled as a UFC event staged by Dana White’s TKO group. The spectacle drew criticism when fighter Josh Hokit used his post-fight interview to make a vile slur about former First Lady Michelle Obama.  Ohanian, who co-founded Reddit and now owns several sports teams, stayed silent for days before finally condemning the remark on social media, insisting he had already left the event when it was made. In his statement, Ohanian explained that he attended at the invitation of UFC’s parent company and emphasized his past decision to resign from Reddit in protest against hate-filled communities. He also noted he was leaving the venue early due to jet lag from traveling between Europe and the U.S. to support Williams’ tennis comeback.  While he expressed r...

 CHAINS BROKEN IN FAFU FOREST: TROOPS RESCUE CAPTIVE, DISMANTLE TERROR HIDEOUTS IN KATSINA


Troops of the Nigerian Army during Operation CLEAN SWEEP  have intensified offensive actions in Katsina State, delivering decisive blows against terrorist elements through sustained, intelligence-driven operations. These efforts, executed by troops of 17 Brigade Strike Group and Quick Response Force alongside elements of 8 Division Special Forces, underscore the Army’s resolve to dismantle criminal enclaves, disrupt terrorist supply networks and restore safety across affected communities in the North-West.


On the fourth day of the operation, troops carried out a well-coordinated clearance mission targeting terrorist strongholds in and around Tuga, within Matazu Local Government Area. Leveraging real-time Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance support, complemented by precision strikes from the Air Component of Operation FANSAN YAMMA, clearing  several settlements.


During the operation, troops recovered a large number of rustled livestock believed to have been stolen by terrorists, including 36 cattle, 280 sheep and 2 donkeys. This recovery represents a major disruption to the economic lifelines of the criminal groups, whose activities are largely sustained through cattle rustling and related illicit enterprises.


Sustaining the operational momentum, troops advanced further  into the notorious Fafu Forest, applying the  Relentless Incursion strategy aimed at denying terrorists safe havens. Following coordinated aerial and artillery bombardments on identified targets, troops converged within the objective area,  engaging  and destroying several terrorist camps and concealed hideouts embedded within difficult terrain.


In the course of exploitation, the troops uncovered a hideout linked to a notorious terrorist leader, where kidnapped victims were being held under harsh conditions. Two lifeless bodies were recovered at the site, while one victim, identified as Nura Yar’Adua, was found in chains and successfully rescued. He was immediately given first aid before being evacuated to the Federal Teaching Hospital Katsina for advanced medical care.


Further assessments confirmed the effectiveness of the operation, with terrorist logistics structures destroyed and clear signs of enemy casualties observed within the targeted locations, indicating a significant degradation of their operational capability.


The Nigerian Army remains steadfast in its mission to defend the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the nation. We call on members of the public to continue supporting security agencies with credible and timely information. Recall that the fight against insecurity is a collective responsibility, we shall collectively address all threats to peace and stability.
