8 children, Police officer’s son among 100 most wanted Boko Haram insurgents



One of the Boko Haram insurgents, whose picture was among the 100 most wanted members of the terrorist sect, is believed to the missing child of a police officer. Punch reports that a senior security personnel revealed that some of the 100 most wanted Boko Haram insurgents are underage children. 

The children among the most wanted insurgents, are listed under 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85 and 99 in the pictures released by the Nigerian Army. The report quoted the security source as saying: “Nigerians should not be agitated about these pictures. The military authorities are not passing a sentence on the kids. 

“They are declared wanted because they have committed heinous acts against humanity. All these people were caught with weapons. Some of them carried out gory activities too unpleasant to mention.

“The pictures are very necessary and they are serving a strong purpose. Do you know that a policeman saw his child among them?

“Many parents don’t even know that their children are now fighting on the side of Boko Haram. The security agencies went a long way to get these pictures for a purpose.

“The military is going after them to arrest the minors, not to kill them. The motive is to prevent them from carrying out further acts against humanity.”
