FG Publishes 48 Suspected Terror Financiers, Nigerians Demand Swift Action

The Federal Government has named 48 individuals and 12 organisations allegedly funding terrorism in its most comprehensive list to date. The names include prominent figures linked to IPOB, Boko Haram and ISWAP, as well as several bureaux de change and trading companies. Experts warn that publishing names without prompt enforcement risks eroding public trust in counterterrorism efforts. Retired and serving security officials have called for immediate freezes on assets, swift arrests and coordinated prosecutions to prove this is more than a symbolic gesture. Civil society and analysts say transparency must translate into measurable outcomes. They are urging clear communication on arrests, trials and convictions to reassure Nigerians that the fight against terror financing is real and unbiased.
