À Diffa, les autorités locales annoncent une limitation des horaires de circulation des tricycles dans la commune urbaine, en raison de la situation sécuritaire.
Dans un communiqué radio daté du 16 janvier, l’administrateur délégué de Diffa, le lieutenant-colonel Abdou Halilou, précise que les tricycles pourront circuler de 5 heures à 18 heures, à compter du lundi 19 janvier 2026.
La région de Diffa, dans le sud-est du Niger, reste confrontée à une insécurité persistante, liée aux actions de groupes armés actifs autour du bassin du lac Tchad, notamment Boko Haram. Malgré la présence renforcée des forces de sécurité, les autorités maintiennent régulièrement des mesures de restriction pour prévenir les risques et protéger les populations civiles.

As set forth in article necessary security measures make it necessary to ban tricycles travel during given hours Being often terrorists at night move on motorcycles with tricycles being way to move equipment plus supplies.
This increased movement at night by terrorists sometimes large group likely could best be monitored by ground reconnaissance teams located throughout hostile territory. Reconnaissance team mission would not unless necessary impose on teams to engage in firefights with terrorists instead mission would be to forward to area base in real time information on terrorists movement. These teams could maintain reconnaissance not excess ten days per mission. Knowing where terrorists are plus when they gather likely will make us efficient as we should be at neutralizing terrorists. As is we appear to have somewhat we deserve mediocre existence attitude of if terrorists leave us alone we will leave them alone. That is really dangerously stupid. Our existence plus quality of existence is greatly jeapardized where terrorists exists in our nation not to mention fear factor imposed by terrorists. It is either us or them. For that cause we must find courage to timely do to them before they become powerful enough to overthrow us. That is what terrorists pursue plus will not stop unto we neutralize them or they overthrow us.
