About four men suspected to be arm suppliers to Boko Haram terrorists have been killed by operatives of the Niger Republic army.

The Boko Haram arm suppliers were intercepted by Nigerien forces before reaching the border that leads to Nigeria.

The suspected terrorists, who were said to be Lybians, were busted and annihilated on Sunday, August 9, on their way to northeast Nigeria.

Recall that the atrocities of Boko Haram insurgents and ISWAP have brought a nightmare on some Nigerians living in the northeast and northwest regions of the country.

Since the emergence of Boko Haram as a full-fledged terrorist group in Nigeria, the group has continuously wreaked havoc on villages, killed people and left thousands of people displaced.

Over 60 persons have been killed this year across the Northwestern states of Katsina, Kaduna and Zamfara this year. Many termed it a massacre going on in this region as a result of almost a daily attack by bandits and herdsmen.

Libyan arms dealers to Katsina bandits were today intercepted by the gallant security officers of Niger Republic on their attempt to cross into Nigeria.
