Boko Haram Plans To Seize Kano, Kaduna, Niger, Kogi And Nasarawa States
According to the Sahara Reporters, an authoritative online news media, a high-level Nigerian security source has revealed that the dreaded Islamic insurgent sect, Boko Haram, led by high profile terrorist, Abubakar Shekau, has developed an ambitious plan to overwhelm and take over some northern states in the country like Kano, Kaduna, Bauchi, Niger, Kogi and Nasarawa States.
The source said the Islamist terrorist group plans to carry out its design by intensifying its bombings and choosing locations that would yield high casualty figures.
Their move is to encircle Nigeria’s capital city of Abuja and increase the level of political instability in the country.
The intelligence agent, according to the report, disclosed that the shape of the terror group’s plans have emerged from the confessions of some Boko Haram insurgents who were captured recently.
We have also acquired a lot of information about their plans through our interrogation of Aminu Sadiq Oguche, the mastermind of the Nyanya Motor Park bomb blast that claimed the lives of hundreds of Nigerians.
Apart from information we have gathered from interrogating suspects, we are also tracking critical conversations by the group’s hierarchy and examining sensitive documents recovered after recent raids on their bases in Bauchi, Jigawa and Borno states.
The intelligence agent also revealed that significant and useful intelligence has been gleaned from interrogating one Mohammed Zakari, described as the chief butcher of Boko Haram. Zakari was recently arrested in Bauchi, capital of Bauchi State.
