Ibrahim Uwais |
The first wife of Ibrahim Uwais, a son of former Chief
Justice Mohammed Uwais who was killed near Aleppo, Syria by US forces,
has been detained by agents of the Department of State Security (DSS)
after she and her children returned to Nigeria.
Halima Ibrahim and her two children returned to Nigeria via Turkish
Airlines yesterday.
Ibrahim Uwais' second wife remains in Syria with three of her kids,
the security source said. The second wife is believed to be a more
radical of Ibrahim Uwais' two wives.
Our source disclosed that Mrs. Halima Uwais and her children have
been detained by the Department of State Security pending an
investigation into their sojourn in Syria.
Ibrahim Uwais secretly traveled to Syria in February 2015 to join
extremist Islamist terror group, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria
(ISIS). He became one of the numerous Islamist terrorists who perished
when US forces targeted members of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria
in fierce airstrikes.
Ibrahim Uwais told close family members he was headed to Turkey to explore
business opportunities.
He took along his two wives and five kids.
However, he slipped from Turkey into Syria with his entire family and
joined the burgeoning army of volunteer fighters who travel from
different parts of the world to enlist with ISIS, a group whose agenda
is to carve out an Islamist caliphate.
