Over 40 foreigners have been arrested in the last one week, following the fall of the dreaded Sambisa Forest, The Nation has learnt.

The Army profiling of the foreigners has started, to determine whether or not they were working in cahoot with Boko Haram insurgents, who are fleeing their former stronghold.
The military has blocked all known entry and exit  points to Sambisa Forest to hem in  the remnants of the insurgents.
The identities of the foreigners and their missions in Sambisa Forest will not be revealed until after a thorough screening has been completed according to a military source.
The source said: “”In the last one week since we launched massive operations in Sambisa Forest,  we have arrested over 40 foreigners.

“We will come up with the details later after the profiling of these suspects. They are all being debriefed. But we discovered that there were so many foreigners in the midst of Boko Haram. 

“We have also rescued  a lot of people who are being screened too.”
