Following Army Headquarters directives to troops in the North East for a painstaking search of motorists and cargoes, troops of the 3 Division Nigerian Army have intercepted and arrested some kingpins and foot soldiers of suppliers of Boko Haram terrorists with hard drugs and other stimulants between Depchi and Geidam, Geidam Local Government Area in northern part of Yobe State today.
The
arrested persons were also engaged in the supply of fuel in addition
to hard drugs such as Cannabis (Indian Hemp), Chlorofone substance (AKA
Madaran suck and die) and Tramol, amongst others.
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 ammunitions, local charms, condoms and all sort 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 the Boko Haram terrorists and other criminal elements in
the society.
You are please requested to disseminate this information to the public through your medium.
Thank you.
