Army recovers Shekau’s Qu’ran, flag in Sambisa

The Nigerian Army says it has recovered a Qur’an and a flag in Camp Zero, the Boko Haram’s Headquarters in Sambisa forest, believed to belong Abubakar Shekau.

According to Daily Trust the Theatre Commander of Operation Lafiya Dole, Maj.-Gen. Lucky Irabor, said this on Wednesday in Maiduguri while briefing newsmen on “Operation Rescue Final’’.

“We believe that the Holy Book and the flag were abandoned by Abubakar Shekau while he escaped.

“The Book will be taken to the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Tukur Burutai, for onward presentation to Mr President.

“We have also made a lot of arrests. Our troops in Damboa arrested about 15 Boko Haram members. We also arrested one Musa from Potiskum on Christmas day which was Dec.25.

“On Dec. 26 our troops also intercepted two Boko Haram suspects in Maiduguri.

“We, therefore, warn residents of the state to be wary of people coming to hide in and around their houses.

“We are also warning residents to report any suspected Boko Haram members hiding in their houses to the relevant security agencies and any failure to do that would tantamount to supporting and sympathising with the sect’s activities,’’ Irabor said.
