A Boko Haram chieftain and weapon manufacturer has been arrested by the Joint Task Force at an Improvised Explosive Devices, (IEDs) factory in Kazaure Local Government Area, Jigawa state.

A dawn-raid at the hideout by armed soldiers saw the apprehension of the notorious bomb-maker and his family without any death, though the terrorist engaged the security squad in a gun-duel.
Three women and three children were rescued by the JTF during the operation, while the unnamed Boko Haram kingpin was apprehended alive.

Items recovered during the raid that resulted to a gun duel include five AK 47 rifles, five magazines, and 333 rounds of 7.62mm special ammunition and various improvised explosive devices.

According to a statement signed by Captain Ikedichi Iweha, spokesman of 3 Brigade, Nigerian Army and made available to Pointblanknews.com: “In continuation of operations aimed at complementing the efforts of military operation in the North Eastern part of the country and as is customary with the JTF in Kano, the command deems it fit to keep the general public up to speed with developments in the fight against terrorists in its area of operational responsibility.

“In the early hours of yesterday, 4 January 2014, at about 0100 hours (1:00 am), following extensive intelligence build up, troops of the 3 Brigade in Kazuare Local Government Area, Jigawa State conducted a pre dawn raid at a residence.

They should use him to arrest some insurgents. JTF should camp in the man's house while he is told to call the buyers. The buyers come and the JTF will arrest them.
