Fleeing Boko Haram terrorists disguising as menial workers —DHQ

THE Defence Headquarters has alerted members of the public to another antic being employed by the escaping Boko Haram terrorists that were smoked out of Sambisa forest by the combined efforts of the Nigerian Armed Forces.

In a statement by Brigadier-General Rabe Abubakar, Acting Director, Defence Information, available information indicated that some fleeing Boko Haram terrorists now disguised as menial workers to melt into communities and towns, with a view to organising  terror attack against innocent citizens.

“The unfortunate recent incidents in Madagali and Maiduguri are instructive.

“The Defence Headquarters, therefore, advises citizens to be on the alert and be wary of these tricks of the defeated terrorists who are hell-bent on remaining relevant in spite of their lost battle.

“This sensitisation becomes necessary now to create security awareness to our citizens to be conscious of some strange faces that could take menial jobs in their communities or towns, especially now that festivities are around the corner,” the statement read.
