The Chief of Defence Staff, CDS, Gen. Christopher Musa, has confirmed that 789 ex-terrorist combatants are currently enrolled in the De-radicalisation, Rehabilitation, and Reintegration programme under the Operation Safe Corridor initiative.
Musa, represented by the Chief of Defence Policy and Plans, AVM Sayo Olatunde, shared this information at the OPSC Stakeholders meeting held in Abuja today.
He explained that the initiative was launched following the mass surrender of members of Boko Haram and the Islamic State of West African Province, a result of well-coordinated operations by all stakeholders involved.
