November 14, (THEWILL) – Community vigilantes have intercepted suspected terrorists with AK-47 guns,10 Magazines, and 160 bullets, among other lethal ammunitions, during a search and interrogation of strange people in Wawa district, Bussa, in Niger State.
A source, who participated in the search, in an audio sent to PRNigeria, said the suspects, who are members of the Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP), confessed to their mission in the community.
“We thank God for the efforts of the military in our area. As part of our security consciousness, after a recent attempt on a military base in Wawa, we searched for strangers in our community and we were able to arrest eight of them with criminal intent and recovered AK-47 guns, 10 Magazines, and 160 bullets, among other lethal ammunitions.
“Surprisingly, some of the suspects even prayed the early-morning Muslim prayer with us in a Mosque. Nobody would have thought that they are criminals, as they looked very religious and pious and they are not even Fulanis”, he said.
