SHOCKING REVELATION: Boko Haram Source of Funds and Weapons Revealed

 “Following the unabated acts of terrorism perpetrated by the Islamic religious sect, Yusufiyya – which later became Boko Haram, since 2009, many questions have been asked by Nigerians and the international communities.

Prominent among these questions is how the militant group is raising funds to procure sophisticated weapons which they use to carry out their heinous attacks across Nigeria?


However, Premium Times reports that since 2009, the deadly sect has continued to deploy various tactics to sustain its resolve in undermining the Nigerian state.
It was gathered that in the onset, the sect began to embark on selective killings and maiming of politicians and security agencies.

Later on, according to the report, the terror group acquired the know-how on how to make Improvised Explosive Devices, IEDs, which it used mostly on security operatives, security formations and churches within and around Borno State.

In a bid to “promote the Jihad of God,” as they claim, the Islamist sect went from terror attack to attacking banks and other financial institutions, as well as the robbery of bullion vans in which millions of Naira were at different occasions stolen.”
It is therefore deduced that Boko Haram are stealing from the public and another publication revealed how they kidnap prominent people for ransom.

Sources of Weapons
Naij reported ” After many speculations on where the Islamist militant group, Boko Haram, are getting the weapons they frequently use to unleash terror in the north-eastern states of Nigeria and Abuja, their main sources have been unveiled.

According to US network TV NBC, most of the Islamic terror group’s weapons are either stolen from Nigerian military stocks or purchased on the thriving Central African arms black market, say the experts, including current and former U.S. officials.”
It continued ” It was also gathered that in some cases, Boko Haram sympathizers in the Nigerian military abet the theft.

    “There are hints that sympathizers in the Nigerian army will deliberately leave doors of armouries unlocked for Boko Haram,” said John Campbell, U.S. ambassador to Nigeria from 2004 to 2007.”

I hope you remember the story of a top military officers who was arrested years back for hiring Nigerian Army weapons to the then Niger Delta Militants led by Henry Okah.
There are many other ways by which the Dreaded Islamic group got sponsored and also get their weapons which is still not clear to the general public.

All I know is there is a Top Player who is busy engineering the whole show and one day he will be exposed to the world and face the wrath of Law.
What is your take on this?
