Some good news from the trenches!
Troops of 3 Division Nigerian Army have intercepted and arrested
some kingpins of Boko Haram. The men were found with hard
drugs and other stimulants. A statement by the spokesperson of
the Nigerian army, Sani Usman, said the men were arrested at
Geidam local government in Borno state. The statement in part
reads;
"You will recall that sometimes ago we reported that
ironically most of the Boko Haram terrorists captured by
Nigerian military cannot read the Holy Qur’an, some of
them cannot even recite the first chapter- Suratuh Al-
Fatiha and yet they claimed they wanted to establish an
‘Islamic State’. When the Nigerian military captured their
bases and training camps, they never found Qur’an or other
Islamic books, what were mostly found were ammunition,
local charms, condoms and all sorts of drugs, including
sex enhancing ones in their enclaves. The arrest of these
drug suppliers has reinforced that fact, more so as they
have been making very useful statements. The Nigerian
Army would continue to do its best in the fight against
terrorism and insurgency in our country in order to make
Nigeria safe and secure. This however, requires continuous
support and cooperation of the public. We always welcome
and appreciate information that could lead to the arrest and
pre-empting of Boko Haram terrorists and other criminal
elements in the society.”the statement read
