Eko Hot Blog reports that a notorious member of the Jamā’at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da’wah wa’l-Jihād, better known as the Boko Haram terrorist group, has surrendered himself and arms to troops of Operation Hadin Kai in Borno state.

“The sources also revealed that the terrorist surrendered with one AK47 rifle, four AK47 Magazines, six 7.62 MM special ammunition, and three Tecno mobile phones and other items,” Makama stated in his post.

According to the sources, the surrendered suspect has been taken into military custody for profiling and further investigation.

This development is seen as a significant blow to the Boko Haram terrorist group, as it highlights the growing disillusionment among its members and the increasing pressure from the Nigerian military’s counter-insurgency operations.
