Police announce reward for Boko Haram information
The police in Maiduguri, on Thursday,
announced a cash reward of N500,000 for information that would lead to
the arrest of members of the Boko Haram sect.
The Assistant Inspector-General of
Police, Zone 12, Mohammed Zarewa, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN)
that he had relocated to Maiduguri to tackle the spate of killings in
the state.
Members of the Boko Haram sect had on
Wednesday shot and killed a mobile policeman attached to the residence
of the Bauchi State commissioner for special duties, Musa Badara.
Before that, suspected members of the group had on Monday bombed a police station in Maiduguri.
“The police is trying its best to uncover the hideout of these
criminals, but our efforts are being hampered by the lack of
information,” Mr. Zarewa said.
