In a land mark event yesterday, 80 Boko Haram terrorists surrendered en
mass to troops of Operation Lafiya Dole in Bama, Borno State.A statement from Acting Director of Army Public Relations, Colonel Sani
Usman indicated that the terrorists, among whom were commanders,
suppliers and foot soldiers were 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.
“ It will be recalled that we have repeatedly stated that surrender is
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-month presidential
deadline for the eradication of terrorism in Nigeria.”
“ 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.”
“ Citizens are please requested to continue providing useful information
to security agencies that will lead to apprehension of all known
terrorists.”
