Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, representing the Ogun West Senatorial District, has claimed that the terrorists causing havoc across Nigeria are not citizens of the country.

Senator Adeola spoke on Wednesday during plenary while reacting to the worsening security crisis in Nigeria, especially the recent mass abduction of students and Christian worshippers.

According to the lawmaker, international bodies may be involved in the decade-long security challenges facing the nation.

Citing viral videos of helicopters allegedly dropping arms for terrorists in forests, the lawmaker wondered about the faces behind the supply of weapons to terrorists.

He said, “Nigeria is at war. These terrorists, the ISWAP group, Boko Haram, and others are not known to our system. They are not Nigerians; they are coming to this country to disrupt our peace, and we can finger an international conspiracy in all of this.

“There are some videos where you will see a helicopter dropping arms. Where is the helicopter coming from?”
