Troops conducting counter-terrorism operations in Borno State have reportedly arrested a suspected spy linked to the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP).
The suspect was apprehended as security forces intensified operations aimed at disrupting terrorist networks and their support structures across the state.
According to the military, the suspect is believed to have gathered intelligence for ISWAP, potentially providing information that could support the group’s activities and operations.
The development comes amid continued efforts by security forces to identify and dismantle terrorist networks operating in Borno and other parts of the North-East.
Investigations are expected to continue as authorities work to determine the suspect’s specific activities and establish whether other individuals are connected to the alleged intelligence network.
Security agencies have continued to urge residents to remain vigilant and provide useful information that could assist ongoing counter-terrorism operations.
