What happened

Well supportedReported by 7 independent outlets

Heightened insecurity has been reported across Northern Nigeria since late May 2026. This violence is linked to the proliferation of small arms and light weapons, which is multiplying the lethality of banditry and organized crime in regions like the North West, North East, and North Central. In Adamawa, Borno, and Yobe states, conflict and insecurity have led to hundreds of schools being damaged or destroyed, leaving millions of children without access to education.

Furthermore, the reports indicate that limited economic opportunities and conflict are undermining youth development in the region.
