The Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps (NSCDC) Borno Command on Sunday said terrorist group, Boko Haram is currently recruiting youths to supply fuel at the Gamboru Ngala area of the state.

Ibrahim Abdullahi, commandant of the NSCDC in the state made the disclosure in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria.

Abdullahi said operatives of the command have seized some quantity of fuel concealed in groundnut oil cartons in the area.

“The command had so far arrested a suspect, who confessed that he did not know the owner of the consignment that he was asked to deliver to the insurgents trapped in Gamboru Ngala.

“He later confessed that each of the five litres of fuel is sold at N15,000 to the insurgents.

“You will recall we raised the alarm that some agents of Boko Haram were transporting stolen cows from Mafa, Kalabalge and Bomboshe axis in the state to cattle market in Maiduguri.

“The Boko Haram usually send the cows to their agents  in the city who will then sell them and repatriate either cash or fuel to the terrorists.

“We are therefore warning the people especially drivers not to accept or convey any form of message that looks suspicious to any one, especially along the Gamboru axis.

“We are also warning the drivers, park owners and union groups to always check their passengers and their luggages to avoid transporting bad elements that would cause havoc in the society.
