Defence Headquarters calls for public assistance

According to Vanguard, the Defence Headquarters is urging the public to assist by providing any relevant information that may lead to the apprehension of these suspects. This move underscores the government’s commitment to addressing security threats in the region.

Nigeria has been grappling with terrorism and extremism for years, with Boko Haram being a major player. Founded by Mohammed Yusuf in 2002, the group seeks to rid Nigeria of Western and secular institutions. Since 2009, Boko Haram has carried out numerous attacks against Nigerian security forces and civilians.

The declaration of these nine individuals as wanted is a significant step towards restoring peace to the North East region. With the help of the public, the authorities hope to bring these individuals to justice and put an end to the violence and extremism that has plagued the region for so long.
