Boko Haram can not really thrive without inside
help, hence the military need to be more vigilant.
I heard they have arrested several soldiers, who
were discovered to have leaked vital security
information on the troops’ strategies and tactics
to Boko Haram that led to a series of ambush and
killing of over 30 Nigerian soldiers by the rag-tag
terrorists in recent times.
Sources say ,most of the arrested soldiers serve as
orderlies or ADCs to Commanders of Troops on
the field. Can you imagine that?
“The situation became so bad that there was
mutual suspicion among fellow commanders, the
Brigade headquarters and even the Division
headquarters.
But at last, the moles were found out to be some
of the orderlies and aides of Commanders.
What they do is that after operational briefings
and troops take off, these moles immediately pass
on the information through calls.”
According to Vanguard , the alleged moles among
the soldiers leaked the information on the
deployment of soldiers from Maimalari Barracks
in April this year to the terrorists which led to an
ambush and killing of so many soldiers of the 101
Battalion that consequently led to soldiers’ mutiny
and the shooting at the General Officer
Commanding (GOC) 7 Division, Major General
Ahmed Mohammed.
His armoured official car saved his life.
It further gathered that the activities of these
moles may have been responsible for the recent
shooting of the Nigerian Airforce Alpha Jet on
September 12 which took off from Yola airport
and was reported missing until Boko Haram
terrorists said they shot it down and killed one of
its pilot, which was confirmed by the Facebook
account of friends of the military.
Speaking under condition of anonymity, a reliable
source said Commanders on the field had for
long wondered how information on strategies for
deployment, type of weaponry and fall back
tactics easily filtered out to the terrorists to the
extent that soldiers’ movement, timing of
deployment, and routes to take, became known to
Boko Haram insurgents.
Asked why it was difficult to discover the traitors
before now, the source said, “Who will suspect
that an orderly or the ADC of a Commander will
be the one giving out information.
He does everything for the Commander and he is
with him all the time. He is the last person that
would be suspected.
But thank God, they have been exposed; the truth
is now known”.
Already, the source noted that a Board of Inquiry
(BOI) has been set up to carry out further
investigations into the activities of the traitors
and to try to find out if there were fellow fifth
columnists still existing among the troops, after
which a General Court Martial will be constituted
to try the soldiers for Criminal Conspiracy among
others.
Also, Vanguard was told at the weekend that six
officers taking part in the offensive to flush out
the terrorists from the Adamawa axis recently
shot themselves in parts of their bodies that were
not life threatening with a view to escape being
drafted to the battle field to confront Boko
Haram terrorists.
After allegedly shooting themselves in the arm,
hip, foot and making sure that the bullets did not
affect any bones in these parts of their bodies,
the officers ran to a military hospital and claimed
that they were shot by terrorists.
Medical experts attached to the hospital in
Vintim, after carrying out several checks and x-
rays on the gunshot wounds, discovered that the
officers had ‘clean gunshot wounds’ which meant
the injuries were 99% self inflicted.
Vanguard gathered that the Army High Command
ordered that further medical tests be carried out
to be doubly sure and that the x-rays were sent
to Abuja where experts did further analysis and
came out with the same results of ‘Clean Gunshot
Wounds’.
