IS fighters have reportedly promised Nigerian brides guns and
suicide belts as settlements after their death or in case of their
death.
Fighters of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) have reportedly used suicide belts and machine guns as settlements in case of their death or divorce after marriage with Nigerian brides.
According
to reports, two IS fighters in Libya who had married Nigerian brides
had promised to settle the brides with the ammunitions in case of their
death or divorce.
On November 31, 2015, Abu Mansour, a Tunisian born in 1977, married a Nigerian called Miriam, in the presence of Sudanese and Malian witnesses.
Mansour,
who was cash-trapped in Libya, reportedly vowed to pay compensation of
‘one suicide belt’ in the event of his death or the marriage being
dissolved.
In
another news, Fatima, another Nigerian bride, was promised a
Kalashnikov assault rifle in the case of divorce or if her husband,
Malian Abu Said was to die.
Both
grooms refused to pay dowries as stipulated in several African
traditions but professed their love and promise to keep their words.
Forces
allied with Libya’s unity government reportedly found the documents as
they searched buildings seized during a battle with the terror group in
the coastal city of Sirte.
