Boko Haram insurrection in the country under surveillance.
Saturday PUNCH investigations showed that the action followed
new revelations that more politicians were behind the serial
bombings being carried out by Boko Haram in the country.
The intensified surveillance follows the arrest of Senator Ali
Ndume, who was fingered by the self-acclaimed spokesman for
the Boko Haram sect, Ali Konduga.
Konduga was sentenced to a jail term of three years on Tuesday
in Abuja.
A security source who confided in our correspondent said that it
was the thinking in high security circles that that highly-placed
politicians were creating the space for foreign elements to carry
out the recorded killings and bombings.
The source said that the list of politicians under surveillance
included some serving members of the National Assembly.
It was learnt that the security operatives were only waiting for
more concrete evidence before moving against such politicians
suspected to have a hand in the raging Boko Haram security
threat.
The source said that more arrests would have followed shortly
after Ndume was arraigned but for the fact that the leadership of
the nation’s security agencies were wary of apprehending
suspects only to release them after a public outcry due to lack of
evidence.
