Only months after Jesus told a Nigerian bishop that the Islamic terrorist group, Boko Haram, would be defeated by the rosary, former captives are reporting that the group is in disarray and is desperate for cash and weapons.

Breitbart is reporting on interviews conducted with various women and girls who have been rescued from the jihadists who say the group is desperately trying to sell the 700+ women and girls they’ve captured in order to raise funds to buy more weapons.

They also said some members are openly complaining about the lack of sufficient weapons to stave off the Nigerian military which has been gaining more and more ground in recent weeks.

The men, they said, “began complaining to their captives about lack of guns and ammunition last month, and many were reduced to carrying sticks, while some of their vehicles had either broken down or lacked gasoline.”

The jihadists are so desperate that they reduced the asking price for the girls to $10 with the hopes of being able to sell more of them and raise the money they need before the military frees them.

Conditions in the camp are deplorable, so bad that even the wife of the leader of the jihadists fled the scene. The women said they were mostly kept indoors and occasionally brought food from the camp's insufficient supply. Many were beaten so severely they have been left physically and emotionally traumatized.

One 18 year-old captive named Binta Ibrahim said one evening in April the jihadists stood before the women and announced: “Our leaders don’t want to give us enough fuel and guns and now the soldiers are encroaching on us in Sambisa. We will leave you.”

“They threatened us, but after they left, we were happy and prayed the soldiers would come and save us,” the woman told Reuters.

On the day of their rescue, when the militants spotted two army helicopters circling overhead, they hurriedly began trying to sell off the women to make as much money as possible before the army approached. As the group began to flee, many women refused to go with them. Some were stoned to death for their defiance while others hid in the grass and were crushed by fleeing vehicles. All told, more than a dozen women were said to have died on the day of the rescue.

Thus far, the army claims that none of the schoolgirls who were kidnapped from a school in Chibok have been rescued. Women from inside the camp say the girls were mostly sold into slavery or married off to jihadist fighters last year in Nigeria or neighboring Cameroon.

Breitbart reports that the fight against Boko Haram appears to have taken a turn last week as the Nigerian military entered the Sambisa forest, believed to be the last major stronghold of the terror group.

It has only been seven months since Bishop Oliver Dashe Doeme of the Diocese of Maiduguri in Nigeria received a powerful message from Jesus while at prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. Our Lord appeared to him and extended a sword. When the bishop took the sword, it turned into a rosary. Jesus then repeated three times “Boko Haram is gone.”

Since that time, Bishop Doeme has been traveling his hard-hit diocese encouraging people to pray the rosary. As word of the vision began to spread around the world, the faithful from every part of the globe joined him in praying the rosary for the defeat of Boko Haram and its violent allies.

It is surely no coincidence that Boko Haram is now beginning to weaken and we can only imagine how much more peace can be brought to the world if we continue to wage war against terrorism with heaven’s mighty “sword”!
