National Security Adviser (NSA) Nuhu Ribadu has cautioned Nigerians against paying ransom to terrorists and kidnappers, warning it fuels further criminality.
Speaking in Abuja while handing over 64 rescued kidnapping victims—freed after a month in captivity in Kaduna—to Defence Minister Mohammed Abubakar, Ribadu stressed that the government has never paid ransom and urged families to stop financing criminal groups.
He credited the successful rescue operation to sustained military pressure and lauded the armed forces’ efforts, with special thanks to President Bola Tinubu for his continued support.
Defence Minister Abubakar also praised the military and urged the public to keep providing useful intelligence to aid security operations.
