A French man was reportedly arrested during the
capture of Boko Haram's strongest enclave in Sambisa forest last week Friday.
DailyTrust reports that the man worked for Boko Haram
as a specialist in repairing and unlocking armored personnel vehicles and other
fighting equipment.Although the Federal government and the military authorities are yet to comment on his arrest, a source within the military says the Frenchman was arrested along the Bama axis of the dreaded forest.
“He was arrested along the
Bama axis of the Sambisa forest and agreed to give vital information provided
he would be spared. I learnt that he is from France but authorities do not want
to make his real identity known for diplomatic reasons…They don’t want to
jeopardise the success recorded,”the source said.
The source added that the sect members might have
moved to another location alongside the yet to be rescued Chibok girls.
“It is likely they (Boko
Haram) are somewhere because they moved away with their equipment and prized
possessions, including the Chibok girls in possession of Shekau group”.
