Repentant Boko Haram terrorists who recently dropped arms and surrendered to the Nigerian army have urged their runaway colleagues to turn themselves in.
One of them, Joseph David, spoke when the Army presented to journalists in Maiduguri, ten of the sect members who surrendered to the troops.
David, aka Ibrahim Alhaji, said he chose to lay down his arms to embrace peace.
“I have chosen to lay down my arms to allow peace reign in the country. We have been accepted by the Nigerian Government, contrary to what we were told by the sect leaders,” he said.
Another unnamed suspect also made the appeal. He urged the rest of the sect members still hiding in the Sambisa forest to lay down their arms and embrace peace.
“The sect leaders told us not to surrender to the government because we will be killed, but to our surprise, nothing happened to us.
“The Nigerian government has accepted us and is taking good care of us,” he said.
