BUHARI ESCAPES AS SOLDIER WITH TIES TO BOKO HARAM LEADER ARRESTED IN ASO ROCK

A member of President Muhammadu Buhari’s security guard linked to the terror group Boko Haram has been arrested. The suspected Boko Haram member has strong links to the deputy leader of the Wilāyat Gharb Ifrīqīyyah terror group. According to Frontiernews the Army Corporal Hassan Aminu has been arrested. Preliminary investigation Wednesday morning by Per Second News shows that the NSA’s office has began the complete overhaul of the President’s security agents. Aminu, is strongly linked to leaders of the Boko Haram cell and was nabbed before he could carry out any plot. He has serious ties with the leader of the Ansaru Islamic Sect, Khalid Albarnawi, second in command to Abubakar Shekau in the hierarchy of the dreaded Boko Haram Sect. Albanawi was arrested in April 2016, in Kogi state by a combined effort of security agencies in the country. The fate of Hassan Aminu arrested at the Presidential Villa is unclear, as he was an integral part of the presidential security. Investigations gathered by this news medium revealed that the NSA put him under surveillance, recording his calls and using confidential informants to gauge whether he had been radicalized before he was arrested. Some in Abuja see the arrest as illustrative of the disconnect between the leaders of security agencies in the country at a time when they are supposed to be allies in the fight against Boko Haram — instead of hunting down the support network and providing a secure nation they are involved in secret power tussle.
