An alleged notorious member of Boko Haram, identified as Alhaji Wosai, has surrendered to the Nigerian troops of Operation Hadin Kai.
Zagazola Makama, a counter-insurgency publication focused on the Lake Chad region, said Wosai surrendered to the army on Saturday, May 11.
Wosai was said to have escaped from an enclave of insurgents in Garno village in Borno state.
“It was gathered that the terrorist surrendered on May 11, 2024, to the troops of 21 Armored Brigade after escaping from the enclave of the insurgents in Garno village in Borno State,” the publication said.
“Intelligence sources informed Zagazola Makama that he surrendered with 1ak 47 rifle and 1 Magazine filled with 7.63MM 39 MM Special ammunition.
“The militant is in the military custody for profiling.”
In April, a Boko Haram fighter identified as Sajeh Yaga reportedly surrendered to troops of Operation Hadin Kai in Borno state after sneaking out from the terrorists’ camp in Sambisa forest.
He also reportedly relinquished weapons, including an Ak47 rifle, four Ak47 magazines, six 7.62 MM special ammunition, and three mobile phones to the troops.
