At least 49 fighters of the Jamā’at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da’wah wa’l-Jihād terrorists group including two Commanders, Ba’a Usman (Munzir) and Alhaji Ari, (Nakib) have surrendered to troops.
According to Zagazola Makama, a security analyst and counter-insurgency expert in the Lake Chad, Military Defence sources said the terrorists surrendered to the troops of Operation Hadin Kai in Damboa on November 20, 2022.
Preliminary investigation revealed that the insurgents came out from Sambisa Forest, where they have been hiding and waging campaign of terror.
LEADERSHIP reports that no fewer than 90,000 insurgents comprising combatants and non-combatants and their families have so far surrendered to the Nigerian Troops.
The sources noted that the sustained onslaughts on the insurgents under the kinetic and non-kinetic approaches had led to the mass surrender.
