President Bola Tinubu says more than 13,000 terrorists had been neutralised in the past year as part of intensified efforts to combat insecurity across the country.
The president stated this on Friday in his Democracy Day address to the nation.
He said Nigeria had moved beyond routine military training exercises with international partners to more effective precision-targetting operations against terrorist groups.
Tinubu recalled that a recent operation in Arege, Borno, successfully degraded a command centre of Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP).
“We have moved from training with our allies, the United States, France and other European countries, to precision targetting.
