The Presidency has denied that repentant Boko Haram members who have completed a de-radicalization programme are being absorbed into the nation’s military.

In a statement issued by Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant to the President (Media & Publicity) in Abuja on Wednesday night, it assured that the administration is conscious of its duties to society and the victims of terrorism.

The statement posited that there is no plan to recruit them into the military, noting that the de-radicalized former Boko Haram fighters went through a programme with an established example from countries with similar experiences.

The Presidency admonished their societies to reabsorb to prevent them from returning to the crime.

The statement read: “Now that groups with hitherto proven bona fides, some religious leaders and a few in the legislature have joined the supply chain of fake news, it important that we step in to clear the false reports that the administration is absorbing repentant Boko Haram terrorists into the military.


It is important for the public to know that nobody has ever been absorbed into the military from the de-radicalized Boko Haram and there is no such plan for their absorption

“None of the 601 former Boko Haram members who voluntarily laid down their arms, and have recently graduated from the Federal Government’s de-radicalization and rehabilitation programme, is going into the military

“This is the fourth such graduation of repentant Boko Haram fighters and not one of such graduates has been absorbed into the military

“The public needs to be reassured that the de-radicalization, rehabilitation and reintegration of violent extremists of the Buhari administration code-named “Operation Safe Corridor,” follows an established example from countries with similar experiences, and is supported academically and materially by the European Union and the United Nations

“The lead agency for the implementation of the programme in Gombe is the International Organization for Migration, a leading inter-government organization which is represented in Nigeria

The crap you just posted above qualifies for derailment which runs contrary to rule 1 of this forum. A clear indication you either didn't read or have issues with comprehension. Rather, just waiting in the wings for any related topic and start posting nonsense.

Yes, re-integrating the so-called repentant bh members into the society defies all logic and govt really goofed in that regard.

But the presidency is saying, contrary to what the lawmakers and religious leaders are insinuating, there is nothing like absorbing the "repentant" bh members into the military.

If you have any rebuttal, direct it in this regard, not discussing orange when mango is on the table.

The Presidency has denied that repentant Boko Haram members who have completed a de-radicalization programme are being absorbed into the nation’s military.

Simply prove the above statement wrong, that is what the topic is about.

See how the useless government is quick to act as the mouthpiece in order to defend the atrocious BH terrorists
Has Maj.Gen.Biu not openly said a BH terrorists can become the president? Spits!
