New Terror Group Claims Fatal Attacks On Mali-Bound Soldiers

4 Min Read

A new terrorist group believed to be a breakaway faction of the violent Islamist sect, Boko Haram, Jama’atuAnsarulMusilimina Fi Biladis Sudan (JAMBS) has claimed full responsibility for the attack of Saturday on Nigeria’s troops in Kogi State.

It released a statement which said that the soldiers were attacked in order to warn Nigeria against joining Western powers in their “aim to demolish the Islamic empire of Mali.”

The soldiers were on their way to Mali as part of the African Peacekeeping Mission when they were ambushed by the JAMBS members who threw Improvised Explosive Devices at their convoy along Okene-Lokoja Road. Two soldiers were killed and many others injured in the ensuing gun battle.

JAMBS claim came on a day that the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero, was flown abroad for treatment after Saturday’s attack on his convoy. Bayero’s   driver and three others died in the attack.

In  a terse  statement posted by an online publication, Dessert Herald, on Sunday, a person claiming to be the Leader of JAMBS, Abu usamatalAnsary, warned  Nigeria and other African to be ready for “ more difficulties”  as they embarked on restoring peace to Mali.

The statement reads, “We, members of  JAMA’ATU ANSARUL MUSLIMINA FI BILADIS-SUDAN,  are gladly informing the general public, especially those in black Africa, that with the aid and guidance of Allah, we  on January 19,  2013  at Itape, Ekehi Local Government Area of Kogi State,   successfully executed our first attempt in attacking the Nigerian  troops  that were aiming to demolish the Islamic Empire of Mali.

“We are equipped and waiting for any slightest attempt of Nigerian army moving towards the Islamic Empire of Mali. And we are warning  African countries to stop helping Western countries in fighting against Islam and Muslims;  if not, we are sternly assuring them, particularly the Nigerian government to be prepared and be  utmost ready to  face difficulties from JAMBS anywhere and  anytime. May Allah help us and grant our wishes.”

When contacted, the  Director of Army Public Relations, Maj.- Gen Bola Koleosho, said   he had not seen the statement  by the group and claimed the terrorists were giving Okene a bad name which the people must resist.

He said “I have not seen it (the claim by JAMBS). I am just hearing it. We are not issuing any statement now.

“The only thing I see is that it could affect the image of Okene as a town. Commuters passing through the town are already dreading it.  They are giving the town a bad name. And I know that law-abiding people in the town would resist it.”

Meanwhile, the Nigerian troops  arrived Bamako, the  Malian capital on Sunday.

Mali, a neighbouring West African country, has been in the throes of Islamic insurgency since March 2012 when mutinous soldiers in Bamako  overthrew President AmadouToumaniTouré.

The soldiers said they were angry over the government’s alleged mishandling of a rebellion by nomadic Tuareg rebels in the country’s vast northern desert.

Following on the heels of the coup, the Tuareg rebels first seized much of the north and then were themselves pushed out by Islamist extremists.

The Nigerian soldiers are part of the West African intervention troops in the crisis.
