The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) Command in Borno has arrested a suspected Boko Haram logistics supplier with a car filled with fuel and other commodities. The commandant said that the command has so far arrested three high profile Boko Haram terrorists and handed them to military authorities for necessary action in 2020. Abdullahi attributed the recent surge in terrorists’ attacks in the state to activities of informants, logistics suppliers and sympathisers who live among residents. “In June alone, we recorded about Boko Haram 19 attacks in the state, some of these were actually repelled. He said that command recorded about 369 cases in 2020, out of which 319 were disposed and over N100 million recovered.
