Daily Post about 2 hours 1 mins read

A 20-year-old fighter formerly affiliated with the JAS terrorist group has abandoned the group and surrendered to troops of Operation HADIN KAI in Borno State.

According to security analyst Zagazola Makama, the fighter, identified as Kurso Muhammed, surrendered at about 2:25pm on Sunday, August 23, to troops of the 21 Special Armoured Brigade at New Abaram Resettlement Village.

Makama reported that the surrender followed sustained intelligence-driven operations by troops in the area.

The former fighter is currently in military custody for screening and further processing.

“The general security situation across the theatre remained calm but unpredictable, while troops continued to maintain satisfactory morale and fighting efficiency,” Makama said.
