Ahmed Rufai Abubakar told security details that Tsiga had told him he was part of Boko Haram only after the explosion in Nyanya, Tsiga had also told him that the reason they did it was because of the lynching of a member 8 days before at Nyanya.
This alleged lynching however did not happen, but was a lie to elicit the sympathy of the sect members. Tsiga also told him that Boko Haram national leader (Shekau) had told all members to relocate to 'Gaaba' (Boko Haram forest camp) in preparation for mass attacks against the country.
Ishaq, who is a sales boy in Tsiga's patent medicine store at Utako named Kishi Clinic, a place Boko Haram used as their base of operation in Abuja.
He said Tsiga had informed him two days before the blast of the plans, but was not told the location, Tsiga also told him that the bombs where being coupled at one Adamu Yusuf home, he also said he followed Tsiga to park the vehicle at Nyanya that night. Tsiga also told him that the story of one of their members being lynched to death to incite him.
Saidu alias Kotar Rama Saidu, 28, was arrested on April 29 at his village, Dandambo, Tsanyawa council of Kano State, he worked under Tsiga in Utako and claimed that Tsiga and Ishaq attempted to enlist him into Boko Haram alot of times.
He also pointed at Tsiga, Ishaq and Ogwuche as the masterminds of the operation, revealing that Tsiga had gone out around on April 13 at 11am in a "black coloured Honda Accord" with Ishaq and returned four hours later, then later in the evening they left in the same car again only to this time return the following day April 14 at 11am.
