They See Terrorists as Brothers in Faith — Agumuo Slams West African Leaders’ Inaction

Barrister Darlington Agumuo accused West African governments, including Nigeria’s, of lacking the political will to form a unified force against terrorism. He argued that religious loyalty to insurgents undermines regional security efforts. He proposed a million-strong regional army capable of dismantling terrorist networks within six months if member states committed fully. He also criticised Nigeria for deploying fighter jets abroad while security at home worsens. On xenophobia, Agumuo defended South Africa’s right to protect its economy but said Nigeria should address the domestic failures driving citizens to migrate. He warned that demanding compensation misses the root causes of mass deportations and insecurity.
