Remember the recent ambush on our troops in Alagaro forest.
Meaning some units aren't always based in super camps some are still deep in the bush some are still even in the sambisa I can tell you this but something's doesn't just add up..

EXCLUSIVE: KIDNAPPED AT 10, BOKO HARAM CHILD SOLDIER REVEALS HOW INSURGENTS TURN CHILDREN TO ISLAMIC FIGHTERS, SAYS TERRORIST LEADER SHEKAU HAS LOST USE OF HIS LEGS (VIDEO)
A Boko Haram child militant fighter has sensationally revealed how Abubakar Shekau, the leader of Jama’at Ahl al-Sunna lil Da’wa wal Jihad (JAS) lost his leg and became incapacitated in one of the devastating air bombardment by the Nigerian Army in the insurgents camp in Tumbuktu - Sambisa forest.



There was increased speculation regarding the whereabouts and well-being of JAS leader Abubakar Shekau in the Nigerian media circle, with some pointing out that the erratic leader no longer released videos while standing on his feet. His leg injuries meant the Boko Haram terrorist leader could only sit down to make video and audio recordings.



The young jihadist named as Mohammed Adam - who says he is 15-year-old, turned into an Islamist fighter after he was kidnapped by the sect from his native town in Firgi in Gwoza local government area, South of the Northeastern Borno state, aged only 10.


Adam was apprehended by troops of 159 Task Force Battalion of the army, on Friday, Dec. 12, at a location given as Muna garage in Maiduguri, the state capital of the restive Northeast.



The brave looking jihadist fighter revealed that Abubakar Shekau could no longer walk or physically lead any operational mission due to his battlefield injuries.



Recounting his own experience, Adam claimed that he personally met Abubakar Shekau after taking active roles in several Operations under the command of the veteran factional leader.





He also claimed that he was among the Boko Haram fighters that escorted the kidnapped Chibok girls to a camp in Tumbuktu and gave them close protection.



Bearing his age - some of his statements cannot be relied upon.



In a bid to confirm to the Nigerian army 159 TF Battalion that they got the right man - the young Adam demonstrated some combat skills he acquired during training by the Insurgents in weapons handling, marksmanship and planting of Improvised Explosive Device (IED).






"I am a well trained insurgent war front soldier who was specialised in weapons handling including AK-47 rifles and GPMG as well as planting IED's along troops patrol route. We are also given training on other unconventional techniques to inflict heavy casualties on troops.



Adam claimed that he had participated in several top Boko Haram Operations and attacks including the elimination of some army engineers in the South of Borno while showcasing skills in IED planting on the road.





He said that he escaped from one of the camps in Sambisa forest due to hardship and hunger, resulting from the Cholera outbreak, which left over 500 militants and their families in critical conditions.



"I escaped with the intention of Being rescued by the troops of the Nigerian army which will, in turn, afford me the opportunity of fulfilling my dreams of going back to school to acquire knowledge," said Adam.



He revealed that other escapees, mostly minors were in Banki in Bama local government area. He claimed to have come to Muna to collect some of his personal possessions from a friend he met after escaping from Sambisa forest.



Adam is currently in the safe custody of the troops of Operation Lafiya Dole of the Nigerian Army for further investigation, profiling and channelling.



The jihadist factions of Boko Haram JAS and ISWAL have continued to employ the battle strategies of recruiting children as frontline fighters in battlefields across Nigeria, Cameroon, Niger and Chad. The recruitment strategy became common after the jihadist suffered major losses of experienced fighters, soldiers and commanders in the hands of Lake Chad regional and state forces.



Most of the enlisted children were mostly abducted at very young ages, groomed and trained to become militant battlefield soldiers and spies.





The latest arrest of Adam and his revelations is further confirmation of the recruitment of Minors by Boko Haram insurgents to evade suspiciousness by the Nigerian troops in the theatre of war.



The protection of vulnerable young children from exploitation by non-state armed groups like Boko Haram and ISWAP is extremely crucial in the war against terrorism in the North East - Mandara Mountains- Sambisa Forest and the fringes of the Lake Chad basin states. The use of child fighters by Boko Haram and ISWAP factions is an ongoing tactic that requires multiple stakeholders awareness.

Whyem15:
The abduction of about 600 students in a secondary Just 6 years after abduction of over 200 in another secondary school is what you get when you have a reactive security system rather than a proactive one.
The 600 is the number reported missing after headcount of the remaining students. Let's just hope that many of them are still hiding or ran for safety.
All these will pale in comparison to Insecurity in the south when organized cultism eventually gets out of hand. And blaming government alone is a very stupid thing to do. Everyone of us has a role to play in the security of our environment. Many of us know criminals/potential criminals but have failed to take action, when the crime eventually becomes unbearable, we start shouting about how government refused to do anything.

JohnBullMySon:
gss not dss. Gss na private security oh. They don't carry gun.

AskiaHarem:


Why is there Never any conclusive Photograph or Cinematic corroboration to these supposed major events? Most of the time all I ever find are write ups on the internet.

Like the event that happened last week where Buhari's Wife was Captured and killed on a Highway in Abuja and strung up like Mussolini.

Or at the start of the year when the Chadian President personally led an attack on BokoHarem killing thousands in a single day.

AskiaHarem:


No video interview?

Whyem15:
This abduction of 333 students is starting to look like a government attempt at showing the effectiveness of the security agencies to me. I mean, the whole country is starting to call for the sacking of service chiefs, calling the security agencies useless and the national assembly inviting/summoning the president to give an account of the security situation in the country.
The swiftness of the response is unlike Nigerian security agencies Sha.
Or it might be that the abduction was done by the bandits and the president knowing his current approval rating applied pressure on all the security chiefs.
Either way, it had to take this event for the military to start search and destroy it f bandits in the forest around Katsina, several exchanges of gunfire reports since yesterday. That's good news Sha. But instead of them to carry this momentum into zamfara, kaduna and other states battling banditry and Insecurity........

Whyem15:


They came in 15 guntrucks, troops captured 4. Capturing or destroying all would have dealt a blow to that cell's mobility and firepower(no platform to mount heavy guns) for years. The military needs to do better though this is commendable. Just imagine what one mi-35 would have done to those gun trucks with rockets. Even RPGs would have helped a lot. That is one thing the chadian army utilizes brilliantly.

The Military hardly go on pursuit. If they do this ISWAP will think twice before attacking any FOB.

We Repel and Sit.

joshingjosh:


If only we could continue with this kind of momentum... it's really a great victory


But wait oo..the Military always say Boko boys have more sophisticated weapons than them... what am seeing here is the regular Aks and MGs and HMGs

SamuelAnyawu:


Bokoharam do not have any sophisticated weapons. The are only motivated to attack.

In Monguno BH used 12 gun trucks to attack a military base with over 50 gunstrucks and 4 MBT. What will you call that?

PrinxArthur1:
I know what I am saying I have seen them with gun man

Whyem15:
Some of the parents of the students have been contacted for negotiation of ransom. Kidnappers told parents to advise military to stop air surveillance. The students were sighted at Mutu primary school in Yanwarin Daji Dakuzo village zamfara state.

Security expert David Otto believes it's only a matter of time before kidnappers run out of logistics supply control and become desperate.
Problem is that they might decide to kill the unknown number of students as it is the easiest way out for them and to also send a message to the families of future victims. Honestly, I expect some of the less experienced members of the kidnapping operations to have started deserting out of fear of apprehension with the level of response from the military.

Toju200:
good just by NAF seems they used Gunships or alpha jet cos with a King air or ATR you'll never know eyes are on you...
Well in my opinion
AFSF should be utilized at this point.
I'm sure some guys wants to go in but higher powers may not think towards that direction

seankafor:
they should stream this on national television

It will help their PR stunts for those who still doubt their capabilities here
