The Federal Government says it has secured 1,721 convictions for terrorism and related offences since the launch of its mass trial programme in October 2017.
Director of Legal Services in the Office of the National Security Adviser, Zakari Mijinyawa, disclosed this during a joint security briefing in Abuja, describing the programme as a key part of efforts to strengthen criminal justice in terrorism cases while upholding due process and the rule of law.
He said the convictions were recorded across 10 phases of terrorism trials coordinated by the Office of the National Security Adviser in collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Justice, the judiciary, security agencies and international partners.
