Defence Headquarters on Monday said it has discovered that Boko
Haram terrorists fleeing from Sambisa Forest now disguise as vigilantes and
hunters in order to evade arrest. Below is the statement issued by the Director
of
Defence Information, Bri.-Gen. Rabe Abubakar, in Abuja:
"Following the coordinated military offensive against the
remnants of Boko Haram Terrorists in Sambisa forest, the fleeing terrorists now
disguise as vigilantes or hunters to evade easy detection. The terrorists,
after being smoked out of Sambisa forest, in their desperation to wreak havoc
on innocent Nigerians and to remain relevant, devised a new tactics of dressing
like vigilantes or hunters to deceive unsuspecting members of the public of
their true identity.
The case of Kuda-Kaya village in Madadali community of Adamawa
State where a group of Boko Haram terrorists, dressed like vigilantes, opened
fire on elated people during a ceremony readily come to mind.
The general public is hereby advised to be wary of unsubscribed
services or presence of vigilantes or hunters in their neighbourhood in order
not to ignorantly harbour killer gang in their midst. Members of the public are
also advised to be security conscious, at all times, and report promptly to
security agencies of any suspicious persons or group of persons in their
community or raise alarm, where necessary"
