The Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, has raised alarm over insider collaboration within the Nigerian military, attributing the gruesome Yelwata massacre in Benue State—where over 200 people were killed—to saboteurs leaking critical intelligence to attackers, a revelation that aligns with earlier claims by Borno State Governor Babagana Zulum, who in May 2025 accused certain military officers and politicians of conspiring with terrorists to destabilize the nation; during his June 16 visit to the devastated community, Musa emphasized the targeted nature of the killings and arson, calling it “one killing too many,” and stressed the urgent need for a strategic overhaul, improved intelligence, and stronger community-military collaboration to root out internal betrayal and restore public trust in the security forces
