National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) has discovered 22 Boko Haram members among Nigerians deported from Cameroun. The returnees were settled at the internally displaced persons (IDPs) camp in Mubi, Adamawa, State.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Director General of NEMA, Mr, Muhammad Sani Sidi, who disclosed this yesterday in Abuja stated that, the Boko Haram members were identified with a peculiar mark on their backs.
“The Camerounian government dumped 12,000 Nigerians at Mubi and we had to
move them to transit camps and even open more camps to accommodate them.
“Ninety per cent of these returnees are from Borno State with a lot of Boko Haram elements among them.
“We arrested 22 of them yesterday, who were actually planning an attack, they were identified with a mark inscribed on their backs with hot iron in form of tattoos. The mark on their backs indicates that they are ready to die,’’ Sidi said.
