A man suspected to be one of the 100 Boko Haram terrorists recently declared wanted by the Nigerian Army was apprehended in Abuja on Sunday as he was boarding an Aero Contractors flight to Lagos.
This was disclosed in a statement by Acting Director, Army Public Relations, Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman.
