The Islamic State-backed faction of Boko Haram, the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), formerly known as Jamā'at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da'wah wa'l-Jihād, has released photographs of militants belonging to the sect observing Eid-el-Fitr prayers at different locations in Nigeria.
 
Eid-el-Fitr was celebrated by most Muslim faithful across the globe on May 2.

According to some of the photos sighted by SaharaReporters, the insurgents were seen in different groups praying together in open fields.
 
In the photographs, small children were also seen praying alongside their fathers.

The Nigerian army had on several occasions claimed the insurgents use children as human shields and child soldiers in their quest to weaken military operations.
 
ISWAP is known for releasing similar photographs during Sallah celebrations.
 
President Muhammadu Buhari had in a series of tweets in commemoration of Eid-el-Fitr claimed Boko Haram has been downgraded by his administration.
 
While the fight against the insurgents has been tough and long, victory, Buhari said, was within reach.
 
“After a period of fasting and reflection, this year, we have cause to welcome the occasion in hope. The battle waged against terrorists who falsely masquerade under the name of Islam is approaching its conclusion,” he had said.
 
“The fight has been long and hard. Final victory is within sight. Boko Haram and its offshoots’ final embers are now fading. Last month, the leader of ISWAP was killed in an airstrike. Since the New Year, thousands of fighters have surrendered.
 
“The territories they used to occupy are now seeing the return of those who were forced to flee their barbarity. Normality is finally beginning to return to the Northeast. It is a long process. Yet it is one we are, together, now embarking upon.
 
“With the designation of bandit groups as terrorists, the challenges of banditry & kidnapping are being tackled differently in the north-west and north-central where the latest military acquisitions and armed forces are being fanned out across the region to thwart acts of terror.”
 
Boko Haram and its offshoot, ISWAP have become more ferocious in recent times.
 
The Nigerian Army has repeatedly claimed that the insurgency has been largely defeated.
 
The terror group has caused the death of tens of thousands of people and the displacement of millions of others mainly in the North-East states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe.

Hnnnmm

Them no dey cover face again

The presidency will turn a blind eye to news like this because it is his children and it happened in the beloved North. But when one tenth of this kind of stuff happens in the East, there will be an emergency presidential address with an emergency security meeting with service chiefs where operation lion shit, crocodile anus, python summersault and co will be launched to kill innocent citizens and burn down houses without any investigation. I wonder if Nigeria security has any intelligence unit at all. Tufiakwa

Some one will soon be denying the obvious fact, that Boko Haram, iswap, ISIS are Muslims.
May be these pictures are church from church service.
Na Dem!!!

All Terrorists are Muslim.

Afghanistan state in Nigeria

You see..

Lol ... So it's the same Allah that ISWAP and Boko Haram terrorists worship with other Muslims ? WOW
