Another wanted Boko Haram member arrested

According to Usman, preliminary interrogation revealed that the suspected terrorist is a Cameroonian citizen.

Wanted list of Boko Haram members

Just 24 hours after one Chindo Bello, a wanted suspected Boko Haram member was arrested at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, the Nigerian military has reportedly arrested another wanted Boko Haram suspect.

A statement by the Nigeria Army spokesperson, Col. Sani Usman, says that the wanted suspected terrorist, Ishaku Wardifen, was arrested by vigilant troops of 23 Brigade Special Battalion at a check point in Maiha, Adamawa State this morning.

Visual matching with photographs on the poster of the list of 100 declared suspected Boko Haram terrorists that are wanted released by the Nigerian Army last month, shows that he clearly resembles the suspect on serial number 22 on the list.
