A joint security task force in Plateau State relocates its tactical headquarters from Jos to Mangu Local Government Area after renewed violence in the area. The move follows a series of security breaches and attacks in Mangu, prompting the deployment of additional troops and equipment to troubled communities.
Vanguard and Daily Post Nigeria both report that the operation—under the umbrella of Operation Enduring Peace (OPEP/OPSH)—shifts its operational focus to bring command and control closer to where attacks are occurring. Vanguard describes the change as part of a newly launched campaign, “Operation Hard Nut.” Daily Post emphasizes the relocation itself, citing a renewed wave of attacks and referencing specific incidents in Mangu, including an attack on Binper.
