 JOINT ARMY, DSS, AMOTEKUN OPERATION ELIMINATES ANOTHER ISWAP LEADER


Security forces have eliminated another senior ISWAP commander accused of planning terrorist attacks across parts of Southern Nigeria.


The statement by the joint Taskforce indicates that an intelligence-led operation by troops of the Nigerian Army, DSS personnel and Amotekun operatives in Owo Forest, Ondo State, has killed Abdussamad Ohida, also known as Anwar, alongside several members of the terrorist group.


The Intelligence reports further says that Ohida was planning attacks on civilians during the forthcoming Yuletide, with the wider objective of disrupting the 2027 general elections. The intelligence, reportedly corroborated by partners from the United Kingdom, triggered the coordinated operation on the terrorists’ forest hideout.


Ohida allegedly took over ISWAP activities across parts of the North-Central and Southern regions following the arrest of his former superior, Abu Uwais, in 2023. He was linked to several major attacks, including the December 2025 invasion of Ipele Divisional Police Station in Owo, the July 2022 Kuje Correctional Centre attack, and attacks on police and military formations in Kogi and Niger States.


It notes that his elimination, months after the killing of ISIS leader Abu Bilal al-Minuki, is being described as a major blow to ISWAP’s leadership structure, operational network and expansion plans in Central and Southern Nigeria, while underscoring the growing effectiveness of intelligence-led counter-terrorism operations.
