The eldest son of Mamman Nur, founder of the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
of the West African Province (ISWAP), Mahmud Mamman Nur Albarnawy, on Sunday surrendered to the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Maiduguri, Borno State.

It was learnt that Mahmud Mamman Nur Albarnawy was confirmed to be the senior son of the late ISWAP founder after undergoing profiling at the Command Headquarters of NSCDC in Maiduguri.

Military sources said that men of the command had facilitated his surrender through his uncle in Gamboru Ngala after receiving the information that he was willing to formally surrender to the Nigerian government.

A reliable agent was sent to convey him to Maiduguri. They arrived in Maiduguri on May 11, at about 1pm.

Mahmud was later debriefed and profiled by a command intelligence officer, who revealed that he sneaked out of the Ali Ngulde camp in Mandara Mountain, Gwoza LGA, into Maiduguri and stayed for about a month in Gwange before relocating to Gamboru Ngala with no alarms or distress signals from communities.

Many of his late father's supporters tried to persuade him to return to the Lake Chad area and pledge loyalty to ISWAP, but he refused because of the execution of his father.

He also admitted to taking part in attacks in Bama, Banki, Gwoza, and other locations as a middle-ranking 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...
warrior.

Mahmud was handed over to Bulunkutu rehabilitation facility for further documentation and custody.
