Terrorists Forcibly Impregnating Women to Raise Future Fighters – Nigerian Defence Chief

During an interview the Chief of Defense Staff Christopher Musa disclose on Arise News on Monday, noting that the terrorists have been systematically impregnating women to create a new generation of fighters.

He further revealed that in every four months terrorist are impregnating women to cause more harm,  bearing more fighters as part of their strategy to sustain violence.

He said terrorists previously relied on capturing communities and forcibly recruiting men, but the loss of their territories has forced them to adopt a different approach.

Musa explained that this was evident in the number of those who surrendered to troops, noting that out of 120,000 terrorists who surrendered after claiming to have repented, half were children.

He expressed concern that such children would be more brutal and perpetrate heinous crime than their parents if not tamed.

He said, “Over 120,000 terrorists surrendered. Out of this number, over 60,000 are children. Now, what were the terrorists doing in the past?

“They used to capture communities and then force men, especially adults, to join them, whether they liked it or not. If you refuse, they behead you, so you have no choice.

“But now that it has become difficult, that they don’t have any territory, they don’t have a means of doing that, they now decided to start impregnating the women repeatedly.

“If a woman gives birth, four months after, they impregnate her again. They were trying to produce a new set of terrorists.

“Those kids, growing up in a society where killing, beheading, and all sorts of heinous acts are rampant, will lack empathy and sympathy. They see these acts as normal.”
