The Northern Fulani jihadists in the Nigerian Air Force departments have continuously aided the Islamization agenda being propelled by their counterparts in the bushes. It is only in Nigeria that horrible activities are executed without consequences, where several air strikes are carried out directly against the citizens in disguise and later claimed as a mistaken strike.
On Sunday, December 18, 2022, an airstrike by the Nigerian Air Force resulted in the deaths of over sixty-four (64) citizens in Mutumji, Zamfara State. The Military claimed it was a mistaken strike, leaving many victims' relatives without fathers, mothers, or homes.
On Tuesday, January 24, 2023, another airstrike by the Nigerian Military killed more than forty villagers in the Doma local government area of Nasarawa State, once again attributed to a mistaken strike. This pattern has become all too common.
On Sunday, December 3, 2023, over 120 civilians were killed by an air strike conducted by the Nigerian Army on a religious gathering in Tudun Biri village, located in the Igabi local government area of Kaduna state. The Military described the incident as a mistaken strike.
On April 13, 2026, a tragic air strike conducted by the Nigerian Military resulted in the deaths of over 100 innocent civilians at the Jilli market, located on the border between Borno and Yobe states. This bustling marketplace, often filled with families and local vendors, became the site of a devastating attack that the Military later described as a tragic error. They claimed that intelligence had erroneously identified the area as a stronghold for terrorist activities, leading to the catastrophic decision to launch the strike.
In the aftermath of this horrifying event, outrage and grief swept through the local communities, revealing a growing disillusionment among the Nigerian populace. Many citizens began to question not only the effectiveness of the Military's operations against terrorism but also the accountability of the government in protecting its own people.
The repeated instances of civilian casualties and the Military's insistence on attributing these tragedies to "mistaken" strikes have fostered a belief among Nigerians that the government and its armed forces may be complicit, either directly or indirectly, in the ongoing terror and violence faced by everyday citizens. This sense of betrayal has sown deep distrust in the authorities meant to ensure their safety and security.
