A statement by the Chief Military Information Officer HQ MNJTF N’djamena, Chad, Lt-Col Olaniyi Osoba said the suspect identified as Murktar Alhaji Chari (28), confessed to transporting the materials to Damasak town in Mobbar local government area for a planned attack on MNJTF troops.

“Intelligence reports indicated that this material was intended for a group of terrorists planning a retaliatory attack, following recent losses, including the elimination of several members and the seizure of a significant weapons cache.

 

Osoba said the timely arrest of the courier and the recovery of these materials have effectively disrupted a potential terrorist attack and dealt a significant blow to the operational capabilities of the terrorist group.

 

He added that the suspect is currently in custody and assisting with ongoing investigations.

 

The Force Commander MNJTF Major General Ibrahim Ali while reacting to the development, commended the troops and CJTF for their vigilance and professionalism, reiterating MNJTF’s resolve to combat terrorism and ensuring the safety and security of the region.
