he 7 Division of the Nigerian Army today
destroyed over 2,000 cartons of dried fish valued
at N60 million seized from suspected Boko Haram
terrorists in Borno State. According to the
spokesperson of the Division, Colonel Tukur
Gusau, the suspected Boko Haram members had
resorted to robbery and cattle rustling and are
believed to also be engaged in some form of
commercial activities with these stolen items to
fund their activities.
“We have about 2,000 cartons of dried fish,
suspected to have been taken away forcefully
from fishermen, fish mongers and business men
in Borno State. We decided to born them so that
we can send a message to these people. What
they wanted to do was to sell the items in an
open market at a ridiculous amount of money and
use the same proceed to sponsor their terror
activities,” he said
