Nigerian forces arrested Yusuf, key figure in a suicide bombing network, in connection with attacks in Maiduguri and Damaturu.
Nigerian military forces arrested Shariff Umar, known as Yusuf, as the key coordinator of a suicide bombing network in the northeast during a December 31, 2025, operation in Maiduguri.
He is linked to the December 24 Gamboru Market Mosque bombing and a foiled attack in Damaturu, with a detained suspect confirming his role in recruiting bombers and supplying IED components.
Authorities also found connections to Umar’s wife and stepdaughter, who reportedly saw a bomber at their home.
Fourteen suspects remain in custody as investigations continue to dismantle the network and recover explosives.
The military urged public cooperation in reporting suspicious activity to help prevent future attacks.
