- Army begs Nigerians in the North East to stop handing daughters over to Boko Haram.
- Urges Nigerians to remain Vigilant.
The Nigerian Army has launched an unsual appeal to Nigerians in the North East discouraging them from donating their daughters to Boko Haram for radicalisation and suicide bombing missions.
The army spokesman, Brig.-Gen. Sani Usman made it clear that this appeal has become necessary due to some of the revelations and confessions received during the interogation of some intercepted female suicide bombers.
Usman said "It was discovered that most of these hapless minors were "donated" to the terrorists sect by their heartless and misguided parents and guardians, as part of their contribution to the perpetuation of the Boko Haram terrorists' dastardly acts against the Nigerian society and humanity.
"The acts of these parents and guardians are not only barbaric, but condemnable and unacceptable.
"Nigerians have a responsibility and obligation to collectively mould our children and wards and define a better future for them rather than condemning them to death by the criminal Boko Haram terrorists and their sympathisers through suicide bombings,"
The Army also urged Nigerians on the need to remain vigilant in the wake of all that's been happening.
Usman added "You can report by calling 193 on any network.
The public is also reminded that the Nigerian Army's offer and reward of the sum of Five Hundred Thousand Naira (N500,000.00) to anybody that provide information about suicide bombing, is still valid," he added.
