BOKO HARAM SPOKESMAN ARRESTED BY SSS

Nigeria’s State Security Service SSS has captured the spokesman of the Boko Haram sect, Abul Qaqa.
Abul Qaqa, who often speaks to journalists after Boko Haram attacks is said to have been tracked using his mobile phone.

According to an SSS officer, “It was a landmark feat that was achieved through collaboration with various stakeholders,” he said.

“Qaqa is a senior member of the Shura (Supreme Council) of the sect and his arrest is probably the biggest ever made by security forces since after the death of the leader of the sect Mohammed Yusuf in 2009,” the SSS source said.
