The Nigerian government, through the Nigeria Sanctions Committee (NIGSAC), has released an updated list of individuals and entities linked to terrorism financing, as part of efforts to crack down on funding networks supporting extremist groups. 
According to the report, the updated sanctions list contains 48 individuals and organisations operating across Nigeria. Among those named is Tukur Mamu, who had previously been involved in negotiations during the 2022 Abuja–Kaduna train attack and is already facing prosecution over alleged terrorism financing. 
The list also includes several high-profile extremist groups, such as Boko Haram, Islamic State West Africa Province, Ansarul, and Indigenous People of Biafra, all identified as being involved in terrorism financing activities. 
Other individuals listed include suspects allegedly linked to fund transfers, logistics support, and coordination of attacks, with some tied to major incidents like the Owo church attack and the Kuje prison break. The government has also directed authorities to freeze bank accounts and financial assets connected to those named. 
Overall, the updated list reflects Nigeria’s intensified efforts to disrupt financial pipelines sustaining terrorism, while signaling a broader push to strengthen national security and accountability.
