Maiduguri — Borno Vigilance Youths Group (BVYG) otherwise known as "Civilian JTF" yesterday captured one Bula Modu an alleged Boko Haram member who specialises in coupling and planting of bombs.
The youths have handed over the suspect to the Joint Task Force, JTF. Modu was said to have fled to Lagos, few days after he planted the last bomb that went off in Maiduguri in May, this year.
Witnesses and those who captured the suspect said the explosion was planted at the popular One Way, along the Monday Market in Maiduguri which killed some people and destroyed properties.
"He was just back from Lagos, carrying his travelling bag which contained some new clothes, shoes and caps for Eid-el fitr Sallah celebration when we caught him," one of the vigilantes said.
He said after interrogation, the suspect admitted that he came back home to celebrate Sallah.
"It is Allah that brought Bula Modu back to Maiduguri at this hot moment when things changed against the Boko Haram sect," a trader Babagana Umara recalled
