As he was being paraded by the Police, Bashir who was arrested in Akoko South-East local government area, Ondo, said he is “officer in Boko Haram”, adding that “killing means nothing to us”.
Key excerpts:
- “I am an officer in Boko Haram, I was arrested by the police when I wanted to go and eat. Other members of the gang and I have been meeting in the bush on how to carry out attacks on Ondo state.”
- “Killing means nothing to us. I have once killed two people with gun. I killed one man and a boy; we just kill people at will.
- “We kill people because we believe that those practising western education are evil doers and we must kill them.”
