These guys are ready to die for what they believe in. It is laughable jubilating over the arrest of Boko member (or the supreme head).

Kamardiran:

I think most nigerians are dumb, do u think someone whose ideology allows him to kill people or even bcome a suicide bomber will be afraid to die? We must nt make d same mistake again,d death of dir leader was d genesis of boko haram destruction of life and property, dialogue still remain d best solution 4 bokoharamism, torture d arrested man till next century,he wnt gv out any info,

Thank you for the reminder. The issue is beyond arresting a spoke person and torturing him to talk. Dealing with rebels of this sort with brazen impunity to take life can be too complicated to deal with. The security apparatus is porous and compromising. It takes holistic overhaul of our security apparatus to make security works. The govt holds the key

Exactly my thought, that is a tested, trusted and most effective way of extracting information from bastards like that. It worked for the US govt and led to the eventual killing of Osama bin Laden.

Waterboarding did not lead to the assassination of Osama Bin Laden

Though Osama is dead, Al Qaeda is still operative in her different spawns
Do we know if BH has sleeper cells countrywide?
Anyone who has studied Al Qaeda knows they have a decentralized command structure [which is what has made them so effective
Before we start shouting hosanna, let's say with the days ahead unfolds & brings knowing that the incompetence of this government is legendary

There is a saying - "to fight a devil you have to be a devil yourself" I therefore subscribe to whatever interrogation technique is deemed necessary be it waterboarding, crushed fingers, a needle or broomstick in your thing, pulling out of finger nails or teeth, I mean whatever, Iwish my uncle is given this role. tongue

I think the SSS got their man. That's why the Arewa are calling for dialogue knowing that the game is up. BH is trying to save face by saying that the person they got is Abu dardaa. If Abu dardaa is arrested tomorrow,  they will come up with Abu marmaa, then Abu tuwo etc.
Challas(m): 6:29pm On Feb 03, 2012
And whats d difference between a Spokesman and a Director of Public Enlightenement?Whether Jonah Swallow Fish or Fish Swallow Jonah,SWALLOW dey there.ABU DARDAR OR ABU QAQA,there is a well pronounced ABU in both names.FEAR DON DEY CATCH THEM!

Nigeria's Boko Haram refutes claim of spokesman's arrest
(AFP) – 4 hours ago 
MAIDUGURI, Nigeria — A member of Islamist group Boko Haram has confirmed one of the group's high-ranking was arrested, but refuted reports that the detained person was its spokesman.
In a phone conference with journalists in the northeastern city of Maiduguri late Thursday, the man said Boko Haram's head of "public enlightenment" Abu Dardaa was arrested and not spokesman Abul Qaqa.
The man speaking on the phone claimed to be Abul Qaqa himself, but his voice sounded different from previous such conferences in which the purported spokesman has claimed responsibility for scores of deadly attacks.
There has also long been speculation over whether those going by the aliases Abul Qaqa and Abu Dardaa are the same person.
"We want to react on what security agents said regarding the arrest of one of our ," the man said.
"The person that was arrested was Abu Dardaa and not Abul Qaqa. I am Abul Qaqa , Abu Dardaa is the head of the 'Lajina', the department of public enlightenment, and not the spokesman."
A senior secret police official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said it appeared the person who issued the comments was indeed connected to Boko Haram, but he dismissed the statements as propaganda.
"It is no surprise they are making this ridiculous claim," the source said. "Abul Qaqa is part of the 11-member Shura council, the sect's decision-making body, and his arrest is a serious setback to the sect."
Security sources said Wednesday that a suspect believed to be the person who goes by the alias Abul Qaqa had been arrested. Authorities have not officially confirmed his detention or his identity.
The man claiming to speak on behalf of Boko Haram alleged that Dardaa was arrested when he was sent to the northern city of Kaduna for negotiations with government officials.
"The arrest of Abu Dardaa is an outright deception and betrayal by the Nigerian government and security agents," he said. "They proclaim dialogue but are doing the opposite."
With authorities unable to stop attacks blamed on Boko Haram, there have been growing calls for dialogue to bring an end to the violence.
"We want to reiterate that no amount of threat, arrest and intimidation will deter us from our course," the purported Boko Haram spokesman said. "We are not afraid of death and we are ever ready to die."
Boko Haram's deadliest attack yet occurred on January 20, when coordinated bombings and shootings killed at least 185 people in Nigeria's second-largest city of Kano.
The group also claimed responsibility for the August suicide bombing of UN headquarters in Abuja that left at least 25 people dead.
It has in the past claimed to be fighting for an Islamic state in Nigeria's mainly Muslim north, but its demands have repeatedly shifted.
