surrendered their arms and renounced their campaign of terror, through the
command’s civil approach to issues.

the military for rehabilitation, said;
“More than 40 Boko Haram
members have surrendered through the command. We have handed them over to the
military for rehabilitation under the Operation Safe Corridor.
“We are able to convince
them to surrender their arms and accept meaningful de-radicalisation and
reintegration opportunity offered them by the government.
“During their stay in the
command, they said they are now praying five times in a day as against when
they are fighting in the forest,” he said.
