Troops of the Nigerian Army operating under Operation Hadin Kai, on Monday, apprehended a suspected Nigerien terrorist while attempting to infiltrate a security perimeter in Yobe.
The troops also neutralised scores of terrorists, apprehended several others, and rescued victims in various operations across theatres of operation.
A credible source told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the inability of the suspect to speak any Nigerian language had prompted further investigations into possible transnational ties.
He said the operation was conducted by troops of the 120 Task Force Battalion in Katarko, Gujba Local Government Area of Yobe.
