The Acting General Officer Commanding , 7 Division, Abdulwahab Eyitayo, says more than 8,000 Boko Haram terrorists have so far surrendered to troops.Mr Eyitayo, who is also the Commander, Sector 1, Operation Hadin Kai, disclosed this during a visit by the Director, Army Public Relations, Onyema Nwachukwu, and a team of Defence Correspondents form Abuja on Tuesday, in Maiduguri.
He said the surrender by the repentant terrorists was a welcome development, adding that, the overwhelming fire power of the troops was responsible. According to him, “one of the reasons they are surrendering in droves is the overwhelming fire power from the troops”. ”It is because every man’s endeavour is motivated by his family’s wellbeing, that is why they are coming out with their families. We started seeing the signs from June.
“Our intensified operations had blocked their logistics’ routes and supplies, bombardments all over, that is why they started surrendering and diseases have overpowered many of them.
As usual, pardon, rehabilitation and empowerment. Leaving victims getting rotting in IDP camps.

Why won't they? Government have pampered bandits like good kids so I believe these guys see themselves achieving their aim faster being called a bandit than being called Boko Haram... I'm yet to understand how bandits formed themselves to terrorize a region like this...
