Four new Boko Haram leaders on July 18, 2017 surrendered to the Nigerian army at Goniri in Borno state. According to the statement released by the Nigerian army spokeman, Brig Gen. Sani Usman, the four repentant terrorists willingly deserted
their hideouts and surrendered themselves to 120 Task Force Battalion at
Goniri in Borno.
“During preliminary interrogation, they confirmed that they abandoned
the terrorism because of incessant hardship and realising that they
were misled by their terrorist group leaders.
“They further stated they were also erroneously misinformed and
brainwashed about Islam and the Nigerian military and the society
generally.
“The remorseful surrendered terrorists regretted their involvement in
terrorism and marveled at the courtesy and humane treatment accorded
them by the military on surrendering,’’ he said.
He called on other terrorists that are still hiding to also come out and renounce the “devilish creed.’’
Usman said that adequate arrangements had been made to receive all
those that voluntarily renounced terrorism and surrendered themselves,
assuring that they would be treated “humanely.’’
