The Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), Gen. Christopher Musa, has announced that 789 former terrorist combatants are currently undergoing the De-radicalisation, Rehabilitation, and Reintegration (DRR) programme under the Operation Safe Corridor (OPSC) initiative.

Musa, represented by the Chief of Defence Policy and Plans, AVM Sayo Olatunde, disclosed this at the OPSC Stakeholders Meeting in Abuja on Tuesday. He explained that the programme was initiated in response to the mass surrender of Boko Haram and Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP) members, a result of coordinated efforts by security agencies and other stakeholders.

He stated that more than 120,000 insurgents and their families had surrendered since the programme’s inception, with the current batch of 789 ex-combatants expected to graduate this year. The meeting, he added, was focused on developing strategies for reintegrating the first of two batches, consisting of 391 individuals, into their respective states.

Musa emphasized the need for continuous collaboration to ensure the programme’s success. “I must state that your relentless efforts and commitment to ensuring national security are highly appreciated. The successes recorded so far are a testament to your resilience and commitment to duty,” he said.

Despite these achievements, he stressed that much work remains, highlighting the importance of the stakeholders’ meeting. He called on state governments to facilitate the smooth reintegration of former combatants by providing additional support to ease their transition.

Why are Southerners keeping quiet over the excesses of the North? With all the atrocities committed by different terrorist groups from the North nobody is talking of consequences for them. Their murderous herdsmen choose when and where to invade. Killing innocent Nigerians and no single person is arrested and prosecuted. Rather you hear the idiots from the North running their dirty mouths on how Nnamdi Kanu and Simon Ekpa should be detained till thy kingdom come. Even our National Assembly has never given a minute silence to the victims of these mad animals from North not to talk of ordering for the arrest of the culprits. Now every part of Nigeria is populated by rehabilitated terrorists from North. Very disgusting. The Northern region of Nigeria should have been merged with their kith  and kin in Niger and Chad republics.
