New intelligence reports available to the State Security Services [SSS] through security reports obtained from feild agents stationed in the Yobe/Gombe/Bauchi axis suggest that the men of Boko Haram have sworn to avenge the embarrassing arrest of their media front man. As 247ureports.com gathered, the SSS agents believe the leadership of the Boko Haram have temporally switched their targets to focus more on the assasination of SSS officers.

It is understood that the Boko Haram leadership view the men of the SSS as a more viral enemy since it is charged with the collection of intelligence information on the Islamic group. And this reason, the Islamic group has adopted the new tragedy that now entails the elimination of SSS agents – believed to be gathering intelligence information on them.
