Nigeria has begun another round of mass trials involving hundreds of suspected militants accused of involvement in insurgent activities. Nearly 150 convictions were secured within just two days as part of the ongoing judicial crackdown. Nigeria has battled years of violence linked to groups such as Boko Haram and other armed factions, especially in the northeast. The government says the judicial process aims to hold those accused of terrorism-related offences accountable.
