[VON.GOV.NG] The Special Adviser on Security to the Governor of Sokoto State, Colonel Ahmed Usman (rtd), has called on the State for Support to Reintegrate 390 Repentant Boko Haram
... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality...
Members.

Colonel Ahmed Usman (rtd) made the appeal while discussing with Journalists in sokoto State.

He said the state government has strengthened its support mechanisms to complement military efforts in ongoing counterinsurgency operations.

''This appeal aims to ensure the full reintegration of 390 repentant Boko Haram members.

'' While the Nigerian Army has fulfilled its responsibility of deradicalizing and rehabilitating former Lions of Islam through the Deradicalisation, Rehabilitation, and Reintegration (DRR) programme under Operation Safe Corridor.

''it is now the duty of state governments, community leaders, and society members to help these individuals fully reintegrate into society.

''These individuals have undergone intensive psychological counseling, vocational training, and civic education at the DRR camp and are no longer a threat,'' Usman Ahmed said.

He added that the 390 ex-combatants, identified as Special Batch 6/2024 and Sulhu Batch 7/2024 clients, were recently handed over to their respective state governments after completing their programme.

He noted that they have acquired relevant skills in trades such as carpentry, tailoring, welding, agriculture, and shoemaking.
