How I became Boko Haram Member - Abdulwaheed Nasiru tells his story.





According to SUNNEWS Abdulwaheed Nasiru a.k.a Haulaki was one of the five suspected Boko Haram members behind the most recent Nyanya and Kuje blast of October 2, they were paraded on Thursday at the Police Special Anti-Robbery Squad Headquarters in Abuja, where several bomb-making materials recovered from them were also displayed. Others are Abdulazeez Muhazab, Ishaka Salihu, Mohammed Jimoh and Abdullahi Nasiru.

They were arraigned in court same day even as Haulaki left his lawyer speechless when he pleaded guilty to the charges read to him.  At the police station before his arraignment, Haulaki, who is a native of Okene, Kogi State confessed that he was indoctrinated into the Boko Haram sect by one Mustapha. He admitted that he was further convinced to join the sect when university graduates tore their certificates just to become members of the sect. “I am an Igbira man and my people are mainly Muslims. I was able to attend primary school which I did not complete because my parents were farmers and they said education was a waste of time. I came to Abuja seven years ago to learn auto mechanic at Games Village and I graduated four years after before establishing my own workshop at Galadima roundabout, Abuja. I got married and my wife is currently pregnant.
