Eighty Boko Haram terrorists have surrendered en mass to troops of OPERATION LAFIYA DOLE in Bama, Borno State.
The terrorists among whom were commanders, suppliers and foot soldiers confirmed to have partook in several terrorists attacks especially on Bama town, Borno State, surrendered as a result of the intense heat and continuous offensive action embarked by troops.
The Nigerian military had repeatedly stated that surrender remains the only option available to insurgents as the Nigerian Army and Nigerian Air Force in conjunction with other security agencies are totally committed to the achievement of the three months Presidential deadline for the eradication of terrorism in Nigeria.
Col. Sani Kukasheka Usman, Acting Director Army Public Relations, said in a statement that other “terrorists are encouraged to also surrender or face total annihilation. As the new name of the operation states ‘achievement of total peace is a must.”
