Over 40 militants “surrender” to JTF in Mubi, Adamawa State
A security source told
SaharaReporters last night
that over 40 suspected terrorists allegedly of the
Boko Haram stock have surrendered themselves
to Joint Task Force (JTF) in Mubi, Adamawa
State.
The town has been under a curfew, and a
military house-to-house search since last week.
The source further informed us that about 100
different types of Improvised Explosive Devices
(IEDs), sophisticated weapons and other pieces
of evidence have been discovered in the ongoing
military exercise.
On how the suspected terrorists surrendered, the source said, “I cannot tell you and it’s purely
intelligence operations that cannot be made public for security reasons, the most important
issue is the military operation in search and counter terrorism here in Adamawa is recording
success. And I told you, about the development.”
The spokesperson of the police in Yola Muhammad Ibrahim did not return several calls put
across to him on Thursday night. But he was quoted by a newspaper as having confirmed that
the JTF recovered some IEDs. He did not give a number either of the weapons or of the suspects
that have surrendered to the JTF.
