Security operatives arrests Chadian President’s friend who sponsors Boko Haram with firearms [DETAILS].

A close associate of the Chadian President, Idriss Déby, named Mr Mahamat Bichara Gnoti, has been arrested in connection with the sponsorship of the Boko Haram sect.

Mr Gnoti was reported to have been apprehended on the Chadian-Sudan border with 19 SAM2 missiles, which he allegedly purchased from the Sudanese army for Boko Haram terrorists.

Report says quotes a Cameroonian investigative journalist, Bisong Etahoben, via his Twitter, that Mr Gnoti claimed that President Idriss Déby gave him “the funds to purchase the weapons, waved a presidential pass issued to him by Mr Deby’s office in order to get past border guards, but was stopped and searched by the guards who found the deadly weapons on him.”

JUST A CLICK AWAY OF BEEN A MILLIONAIRE

According to Sahara Reporters, this further proves that, the Chadian leader was one of those sponsoring insurgency in Nigeria.

Mr Déby had similarly swindled the Nigerian government “out of millions of dollars in Nigeria’s failed attempt to negotiate the release of some 200 high school girls abducted by Boko Haram.” Sahara reporters claimed.

Mr Bisong Etahoben also confirmed that Mr Gnoti was actually arrested on November 17.

Meanwhile, the federal government has reportedly launched an investigation to determine the veracity of the report.
