The spokesperson for the Nigerian Army, Sani Usman, said on Tuesday that the Military troops usually find condoms, hard drugs and sex-enhancing drugs in camps captured from Boko Haram insurgents.
He said the findings underlined the military’s belief that most Boko Haram militants were not grounded in Islam and were not driven by Islamic ideology, and also disclosed that a lot of insurgents arrested could not even recite the Quoran, the holy book of Muslims.
"When the Nigerian military captured their bases and training camps, they never found Qur’an or other Islamic books, what were mostly found were ammunition, local charms, condoms and all sort of drugs including sex enhancing ones in their enclaves.
You will recall that sometimes ago we reported that ironically most of the Boko Haram terrorists captured by Nigerian military cannot read the Holy Qur’an, some of them cannot even recite the first chapter- Suratuh Al-Fatiha and yet they claimed they wanted to establish an Islamic State."
He said those arrested between Depchi and Geidam, Geidam LGA in northern part of Yobe State, by troops of Nigerian Army’s 3rd Division on Tuesday turned out to be suppliers of hard drugs and other stimulants to terrorists.
"The arrest of these drug suppliers has reinforced that fact, more so as they have been making very useful statements.
The arrested persons were also engaged in the supply of fuel in addition to hard drugs such as Cannabis (Indian Hemp), Chlorofone substance (AKA Madaran suck and die) and Tramol, amongst others."
