Military forces, as part of Operation HADIN KAI, apprehended two individuals suspected of collaborating with the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) in Borno State. A counter-terrorism expert, Zagazola Makama, announced the arrest in a statement on X. The suspects, Adamu Abdullahi, 20, and Buba Ibrahim, 18, were seized during a roadside search along the Mandaragirau-Sabon Gari Road on August 9 at 10:30 am.
They were taken into custody after being identified as herders, but were held for investigation due to their alleged involvement with terrorist elements and in cattle rustling. The suspects were also found to have N131,300 in cash. The military's operation aims to identify and disrupt individuals aiding terrorist groups across Borno, with a focus on key routes and rural areas where such activities may take place.
