Young Girls Now Trained To Spy For Boko Haram, 13-Year-Old Arrested

Special Forces of the Nigerian Army Unit in Gwoza, Borno State have arrested a 13-year-old girl for spying on the military formation for the members of the Boko Haram.

A security source said that soldiers who picked up the girl were said to be stunned when they found an AK 47 assault rifle in her residence.

It was further gathered that the girl led the soldiers to three others girls who were also said to have been recruited by Boko Haram to spy on military formations.

It was further stated that there were fears in security circle that the insurgents might have embarked on recruitment of innocent children to get information on military formations in the area for possible attack.

The source added that the military was also concerned that some of the abducted girls of Government Secondary School, Chibok, who have been in custody of the insurgents since April could be indoctrinated for such dangerous assignments.
