MILITARY authorities in Borno State
they had arrested a group of 56
terrorists that were moving from
village to village in search of food,
following a tip off from civilians.
Some member of the group, according
to the Director of Defence
Information, Brigadier-General Chris
Olukolade, who were moving around
in a Toyota Land Cruiser Jeep with
registration number Borno XA 428
ADM, suspected to have been stolen,
were arrested at Daban Masara village
while looking for food.
Weapons found in their possession
included AK-47 rifles, single-barrel
shotgun, double-hand shotgun and
various calibres of arms.
Other items recovered from the group
included seven packs of Improvised
Explosive Devices (IED), two rocket-
propelled gun chargers, two machetes,
bomb detonators, camouflage and
other military uniforms. They were
also with charms, seven vehicles and
eight tricycles.
Olukolade said that it was believed
that some stranded terrorists were
keen on establishing new camps.
According to him, most of them are
currently in search of food, and are
being trailed by military operatives.
The defence spokesman also disclosed
that there were a few encounters with
some insurgents in forest locations,
apart from the identified and
destroyed camps.
He said that the intensive cordon and
search operation being conducted by
the troops of the Special Forces
received a major boost from civilian
cooperation in communities close to
locations being focused in the
operation.
58 sect members released
Following presidential directives, a
total of 58 children and women linked
with Boko Haram were released in
Borno and Yobe States by military
authorities on Friday.
Some of the released children
disclosed to Saturday Tribune that
they were each paid N5,000 whenever
they were sent on intelligence
gathering errands by the insurgents.
The detainees in Yobe State were
presented to the state government by
the spokesman of the JTF in the state,
Lieutenant Eli Lazarus.
The detainees released in Yobe
include 17 women and 21 children.
Lieutenant Eli Lazarus expressed the
hope that the release would serve the
purpose for which it was intended
pointing out that other detainees will
also be released in subsequent
badges.
Receiving the detainees on behalf of
the state government, the Attorney-
General and Commissioner of Justice,
Ahmed Mustapha Goneri, thanked the
JTF, saying the detainees would be
rehabilitated and integrated into the
society.
The state government, according to
him, will give those released the
needed trade so as to start up life
afresh.
This is just as Borno State governor,
Kashim Shettima, received 20
members of the sect comprising six
women and 14 young men between
ages nine and 14 at the Government
House in Maiduguri for rehabilitation
and subsequent release to their
parents.
Governor Shettima, while receiving
the released sect members, thanked
the president for his magnanimity and
courage, indicating his commitment
and quest for peace and return of
normalcy in the state.
He commended security agencies for
ensuring the safe-keep of the sect
members and handing them over to
government in good health.
“We will do our part by ensuring that
they are integrated into the larger
society after rehabilitation to become
better citizens. The Federal
Government has shown commitment
by releasing the wives and children of
Boko Haram sect members under
detention.
“We would admit the women into our
development centres for rehabilitation
while the children would be handed
over to the ministry of women affairs
for their parents to come and receive
them after they might have written
an undertaking to enroll them in
schools,” Governor Shettima said.
The governor also said for every child
that is enrolled and stays in school,
government would ensure their
parents receive N10,000 at the end of
every month.
Some of the released children told
Saturday Tribune that their masters
used them mostly as intelligence
gatherers either to watch out for the
soldiers at their unit and report back
when the soldiers are at leisure or
sleeping or to go to market to find out
where there was money and report
back for the older boys to kill soldiers
or steal money from their victims.
