The 7 Division of the Nigerian Army in Maiduguri has
called on the general public, especially traditional rulers in
Borno State to stop the use of horses following recent
attacks by militant group Boko Haram which were
executed by horse-riding militants. He warned that anyone
found using a horse would be considered as an insurgent.
The warning was given by the spokesman of the Division
Col. Tukur Gusau at the destruction of dry fish worth
millions of naira that was seized from the Boko Haram
insurgents at different locations in Borno State.
Colonel Tukur Gusau informed that the seized fish was
another source of funding for the terrorists that has been
truncated. He disclosed that the seized fish consist of 2,000
cartons of smoke fish and dry meat that the insurgents
carted away from innocent traders.
“We invited you to witness the burning of N2,000 cartons
and smoke fish and smoke meat, which they use in funding
their terrorism,” Gusau said.
He explained that all revenue sources of the insurgents
have been blocked — both their sources of fuel supply and
food.
The Army, therefore called on the general public to
continue to support “Operation Lafiya Dole”, which means
“Peace by Force”, by promptly reporting suspicious
movement of vehicles or persons loaded with supplies meant
for Boko Haram terrorists.
