Western Nations Allegedly Equip Terrorists in Nigeria

In an interview on Arise Television, security expert Dantata alleged that some Western nations are involved in equipping terrorists in Nigeria to facilitate access to illegal mining activities. He stated that bandits have been observed receiving arms via helicopters, which they use to secure gold in exchange.

Dantata emphasized that these actions are part of a broader conspiracy involving unscrupulous Western nations that tap into Nigeria's illegal resources. He noted that the current battle against insurgents is not limited to ISWAP members but also includes Boko Haram, which has been trained to handle sophisticated rifles.

Dantata further claimed that this situation was predicted as early as 2015, when it was suggested that Nigeria might split due to these ongoing conflicts.
