Nigerian troops arrested five suspected Islamist commanders in the northern city of Kano and destroyed a house where they stored weapons, a military spokesman said.
Security forces found more than a dozen improvised explosive devices, bomb-making materials, Kalashnikov rifles and machine guns in the building in the Gaida Ajawa district of the city, Ikedichi Iweha, a spokesman for the joint military task force in the region, said today in a statement handed to reporters.
About 22 people were killed and 65 wounded on March 18 when suspected members of the Islamist group Boko Haram detonated bombs at a bus station in Kano’s Sabon Gari district.
Boko Haram has carried out attacks in the north and the capital of Abuja since 2009 as part of a campaign to impose Shariah law in Africa’s top oil producer.
The most populous African nation, with more than 160 million people, Nigeria is roughly divided between a largely Muslim north and mostly Christian south.

Yet, they call them faceless group. If they are members of the group, prosecute them in court and stop all these fake arrests.
