Nigeria is reacting after Operation Hadin Kai rescued 360 hostages from a Boko Haram enclave in Borno State. While many praised the military operation, the continued captivity of abducted Oyo schoolchildren has sparked difficult questions about rescue efforts across the country.

Meanwhile, the rescue of former Power Minister Adebayo Adelabu's sister and her twin sons in Ibadan triggered debate online, with many Nigerians asking why some kidnapping cases appear to receive faster responses than others.

Conversations on insecurity also extended beyond Nigeria's borders as Nigerians protested in Toronto over the Oyo abductions, while a mother and her children staged an emotional appeal in Abuja calling for the safe return of kidnapped pupils.

Elsewhere, a viral video reignited discussions on ethnic profiling after a Fulani traveller alleged he was removed from a commercial bus in Lagos.

The Federal Government has also approved the evacuation of Nigerians seeking to leave South Africa amid rising xenophobic attacks.

In politics, David Umahi fired back at critics of the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano Road project, while former President Goodluck Jonathan urged stronger institutions and respect for the rule of law as conversations around Nigeria's democratic future continue.

Social media also couldn't stop talking about a touching moment between FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and his wife, Justice Eberechi Suzzette Wike, during a University of Port Harcourt convocation ceremony. In Anambra, Governor Chukwuma Soludo vowed action against pastors accused of staging fake miracles.

In Anambra State, Governor Chukwuma Soludo is trending after threatening legal action towards fake pastors performing fake miracles.

And in good news, Tobi Amusan continued her remarkable season by winning gold in the women's 100m hurdles and setting a new meet record, further cementing her place among the world's elite athletes.
