Abuja – The Defence Headquarters has disclosed that
some Boko Haram terrorists have begun to surrender
with their weapons voluntarily following relentless
onslaught by troops.
This is contained in a statement posted on the DHQ
website on Sunday.
“Some of them submitted themselves and their weapons
to the leadership of the troops in Konduga during a
further campaign at the weekend.
“As the heat on the terrorists continues, five terrorists
surrendered on Saturday (Sept. 20) with all their
weapons to troops at Konduga pleading for mercy.’’
According to the statement, other captured terrorists
who refused to surrender have also been giving useful
information on the subsequent plans of the group in an
apparent effort to cooperate.
The DHQ recalled that in the last few days there had
been several attempts by desperate terrorists to gain
entry into Konduga which were foiled by the troops.
The terrorists’ move, according to the statement, is
aimed at recovering the bodies of their prominent
fighters who died in previous encounters in the area.
The DHQ also said that its troops had recovered more
weapons during mop-up operations while some of their
terrorists’ vehicles had been destroyed.
