The Joint Task Force (JTF) in Kano said it has scuttled plans by “terrorist elements” to carry out fresh attacks in the state during a “pre-emptive” operation yesterday morning.
 

Muslim faithful are preparing for the Ed-el-fitr billed for this Saturday to mark the end of this year’s Ramadan fast.

Addressing newsmen yesterday at the headquarters of the 3 Brigade Nigerian Army in Kano, the JTF, through the state Director of State Security Service (SSS), Mr Bassey Eteng, disclosed that it had recovered large quantities of arms and ammunition as well as explosive devices that were to be used in the said plan.

JTF also said it arrested three persons in connection with the foiled attack.

According to the task force, the weapons were uncovered during a raid around 6:00am on a suspected hideout of the “terrorist elements” inside a bush in Tudun Bayero in Gadan Tamburawa suburb of Kano.

The hideout, which is located about 10 kilometres from Kano city off Zaria road, was initially used as a poultry house, said JTF.

Eteng said the raid was based on security information.

He stated, “From intelligence available, the materials and ordinances were to be used on innocent persons during the forthcoming Sallah celebration,” adding that the place was also used for production of propaganda materials by the group.

While urging members of the public to be more vigilant and to always avail security agencies with information that can help in restoring peace to the state, the director said investigations are still continuing with a view to apprehending more suspects. “We hope to make the state as peaceful as possible, so that people can go about their normal businesses,” he said.

Items recovered in the raid, according to JTF include: 36 IEDs of various calibres, five guns, four smoke guns, 739 rounds of various calibres of ammunition, 2.5 litres of nitric acid and seven bags of ammonia fertilizer.

Also recovered were three face masks, military uniforms, banners with Arabic inscriptions, 90 packs of bangers, 55 medical syringes and hand gloves, among others.

Also, the SSS director confirmed the arrest of the owner of Al-Amir restaurants chain, Alhaji Muktari over suspected links with the Boko Haram sect.

Eteng however disclosed that the suspect had been released by the JTF after being questioned.

“He was released the very day he was arrested after he was interrogated,” he said.

It would be recalled that the owner of the popular restaurant which has outfits across the country was picked on Thursday evening by men of the JTF at his residence in ‘Yan Majalisa Estate in Gwammaja quarters.

Sunday Trust could not reach him for comment.

Outspoken Islamic cleric, Sheik Ahmad Abubakar Gumi, has demanded that the Nigerian government withdraw soldiers from violence-ridden northern cities because the government and soldiers are not really serious about fighting Boko Haram.



Instead, Mr. Gumi accused the soldiers of killing innocent Muslims across Northern Nigeria. He called on the government to send the soldiers back to the barracks for peace to reign.

The cleric also accused former President Olusegun Obasanjo and one-time Defense Minister General T.Y. Danjuma (ret.) of conspiring to retire competent Muslim military officers on account of their having held political appointments.

A source who heard Sheik Gumi's latest sermon at the famous Sultan Bello Mosque in Kaduna told SaharaReporters that Mr. Gumi made these observations at a well attended Ramadan sermon on Friday evening.

According to the source, the cleric "told the congregation that[b] he saw with his eyes how soldiers were beating an innocent citizen in Kaduna yesterday[b] (Friday) - after removing the citizen from a car." Mr. Gumi reportedly wondered which law gave a soldier or police officer the right to maltreat innocent people. He concluded that the government was not waging a fight against Boko Haram but was molesting Muslims in their most populated environment. He claimed that there was a plot to oppress Muslims since the Chief of Army Staff is a non-Muslim.

The source quoted Gumi as stating that the country was "back in the Ironsi days, querying why soldiers are molesting innocent Muslims on streets by forcing them off their motorcycles. "Are they the Boko Haram?" the source quoted Sheik Gumi as asking. He added that the cleric stated, "[The soldiers] know where Boko Haram is because they… have their telephone numbers and are interacting with them on the Internet. What we are saying is, Islam does not permit any one to be killed unjustly. We are not talking on behalf of Boko Haram or on behalf of government. Anyone that goes wrong we will not be afraid to say it.

"I read in the papers that this American woman came and said that they cannot use force and fight Boko Haram. And we know they will say sweet things in public and continue conspiracy underground. What we are saying is in the spirit of peace; they should remove these soldiers and police on the roads and nothing will happen to us in the name of Allah.

Sheik Gumi reportedly suggested that it was the presence of soldiers and police on streets that draws attacks by Boko Haram, leading to civilian casualty. "Take them [soldiers and police] to the barracks or rooms and we will get peace," the cleric reportedly said.

Our source disclosed that Mr. Gumi accused some powerful elements of using the threat of Boko Haram as a ruse to mistreat Muslims. "They are following our innocent people and killing them in the name of Boko Haram. If the Boko Haram [militants] are Muslims, they should leave us with them, and enter their barracks. Muslim cities like Sokoto, Kano, Maiduguri, Kaduna, Bauchi, Yobe and all others should be vacated," the sheik reportedly said.

the struggle continue.. Allah has instructed prophet osama bin latrin (piss unto him)
prophet shekau (piss/shit unto him)
prophet abu qada (piss unto him) to bring more blood to his kingdom in exchange for 72virgins and a pool of beer and u expect them to repent

Ť☺ these Imam, killing christians isn't their concern bt dealing with stuborn muslims is ∂ bigger deal.

ΆŋԂ H̲̅€ preached PEACE!

Dumb comments on ds thread

The more I read stories about boko haram,the more I pity GEJ! He is really sorrounded by enemies.I just pray that a repeat of what happened to Aguiyi Ironsi will not happen to him.

The reason the Gumi called Mrs Bill Clinton the American woman ,stems from the culture of disrespect Islam has for women.A thought on the following explains it.

The woman who dies and with whom the husband is satisfied will go to paradise.


A wife should never refuse herself to her husband even if it is on the saddle of a camel.


Hellfire appeared to me(Mohamed) in a dream and I noticed that it was above all peopled with women who had been ungrateful. "Was it toward God that they were ungrateful?" They had not shown any gratitude toward their husbands for all they had received from them. Even when all your life you have showered a woman with your largesse she will still find something petty to reproach you with one day, saying, "You have never done anything for me."



If anything presages a bad omen it is: a house, a woman, a horse.Which in the contemporary sense means. a home(house) were a woman rides a horse(car).


Never will a people know success if they confide their affairs to a woman. Ha ! Ha! Ha! The reason 99.9 percent of moslem societies are the poorest in the world
