The United States government has announced a $10 million (approximately Sh1.2 billion) reward to persons who will provide information leading to the arrest of three leaders of the Al-Shabaab terrorist group.
In a notice through its Nairobi Embassy, the US said the three are responsible for numerous terrorist attacks in Somalia, Kenya, and neighboring countries that have killed hundreds of people.
The three Al-Shabaab leaders were identified as Mahad Karate, Jehad Mostafa, and Ahmed Diriye.
“To our Kenyan and regional partners, United States is offering reward money for information that will lead to the identification and disruption of Al-Shabaab’s revenue sources and funding. This is huge information on Al-Shabaab’s exploitation of local natural resources and financial donors and facilitators,” the US said.
“We know that Al-Shabaab receives money through a plethora of illegal activities that go on around the world to fund their operations and to fund the killing of hundreds of civilians every year.”
Informants are urged to submit the information through Signal, Telegram or WhatsApp to +254-71-87-12-366 (Kenya) or +252-68-43-43-308 (Somalia).
Besides the reward, the informants will also be eligible for relocation.
