The Army said yesterday its troops usually
discover condoms, hard drugs and sex-enhancing drugs in camps captured from
Boko Haram insurgents.
Army spokesman Col. Sani Usman, said the findings apparently
underlined the military’s belief that most Boko Haram militants were not
grounded in Islam and were not driven by Islamic ideology. And that many of the
insurgents so far arrested could not even recite the Quoran, Islam’s Holy book.
Col Sani said those arrested by Army’s 3rd Division
troops yesterday between Depchi and Geidam, Geidam Local Government Area of
Yobe State were found to be the suppliers of hard drugs and other stimulants to
terrorists
He said: “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.
“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’.
“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.
“The arrest of these drug suppliers has reinforced that
fact, more so as they have been making very useful statements.”
