Lai Mohammed, the Minister for Information and Culture, also said repentant Boko Haram terrorists should not be prosecuted but treated as prisoners of war.

In the past few weeks, the news circle has been dominated by reports of repeated surrenders of Boko Haram terrorists to the Nigerian military. More than 2,000 terrorists were reported to have surrendered and branded ‘repentant’ by the Army, claiming adherence to international laws relating to ‘enemies willing to surrender’.Nigerian Army

While loyalists of President Muhammadu Buhari see the massive surrenders of the insurgents as a great milestone, observers and critics are sceptical, wondering if the weekly parades of repentant terrorists are not mere propaganda. This has raised a major question: why are these terrorists suddenly surrendering to the Army?

“The Shekau empire collapsed after his death. Many of his foot soldiers became powerless because ISWAP took over their gunfires. The Shekau faction of Boko Haram became leaderless,” the newspaper quoted a source as saying. An interim council headed by Abu Mus’ab Al-Barnawi restructured the leadership of the extremist sect. The shake-up, FIJ gathered, was in line with a directive from the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria , an international terrorist group that claims religious authority over all Muslims.

“The massive surrenders of Boko Haram fighters are largely due to loss of confidence, maltreatment, and growing of insurrections between the ISWAP and members of the Jamā’at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da’wah Wa’l-Jihād after the death of their leader, Abubakar Shekau.

They didn't surrender bcos they felt remorse but they surrendered bcos they had been defeated by other terrorist grp. With this they need to be prosecuted, this will serve as lesson to others intending or present terrorist. But since our govt are daft, nothing will be done.

They are surrendering because tbey have an agenda.After being pardoned,their chief bandit in caftan integrates them into the security forces thereby gradually fulfilling the Taliban Agenda. Ask yourself,why is this govt sugar coating their treatments yet EndSARS like terrorist

One thing NIGERIANS must understand about this people called Boko Haram, Bandits & wicked muslims is they never give up they never surrender they fight till they kill you or you kill them so don't fall for this thier tactics that they're surrender to Army they're all the same...
