Army arrests terrorists' financier in Bama

Troops have intercepted and arrested a suspected Boko Haram financier and stimulants dealer.

 

The Nigerian Army's resolve to flush out Boko Haram, by December 2015, is yielding great result.

A statement signed by Col. Sani Kukasheka Usman, said  "Investigation revealed that Mohammed supplies them Kolanuts and other items especially stimulants. He further revealed that kolanuts is in high demand among the terrorists as it keeps them active at night. It is apparent also that he plies Maiduguri-Dikwa-Kulli axis where he gathers monetary and other materials contributions from Boko Haram sympathizers along that axis and send same to the terrorists camps."

Adding that "We are glad to report that troops morale remains very high and they are ever ready to continue with their duty in the most professional and responsive manner."

The Army Head-Quarters also posted this on their Twitter timeline.
