On Tuesday 2nd August 2016, at about 8.30am, troops of Operation LAFIYA
DOLE with assistance of Vigilantes on routine checks, identified and
arrested a high profile suspected Boko Haram terrorist, Mohammed
Mohammed Zauro at Sabon Gari, Damboa Local Government Area, Borno State.
Preliminary investigation shows that the suspected terrorist kingpin was
arrested as he was trying to flee to Birnin Kebbi, Kebbi State, from
Sambisa forest. The troops recovered a Gionee brand of mobile telephone
handset and a fake SAIE/JIBWIS identification card to perfect his escape
and the sum of N7,900.00k.
Similarly, troops also intercepted another suspected Boko Haram
terrorist, Lawal Aboi, along Damboa-Bale road. According to him, he was
on his way to voluntarily surrender to the troops in Damboa because he
was tired of fighting for no just cause. Both suspects are being further
interrogated.
Thank you for your kind and usual cooperation.
Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman
