The Chief Executioner of the Boko-Haram terrorist organization, Bashir Bulabuduwaye, who was responsible for the slaughtering of all abducted persons, has surrendered to the Nigerian Army.
Newsbreak.ng learned that Bulabuduwaye surrendered alongside his immediate family – comprising wives and children – to the troops of Operation Hadin Kai in Banki in Bama Local Government Area (LGA) of Borno State on Monday.
Bulabuduwaye was known to be a terrorist who executes captured military officers and civilians when Abubakar Shekau (Boko Haram leader) was alive.
Bulabuduwaye and his team of executors have reportedly murdered at least 1,000 persons.
A source said: “He broke away after refusing to pledge his allegiance to the Islamic State (ISIS) to form a camp in Kote village in the axis of Banki where he was hiding with other fighters.
“But he surrendered due to the sustained intensified intelligence-led airstrikes, heavy artillery bombardment and ground offensives by the Nigerian military troops of Operation Hadin Kai.
“It was difficult for him to access food and other logistics, coupled with the flooding which already ravaged most of their settlement.
“He also fears battlefield elimination by ISWAP, being one of those fingered to be eliminated for refusing to pay allegiance.”
The Theatre Commander, North East “Operation Hadin Kai”, Major-General Christopher Musa, said over 79, 000 insurgents comprising combatants and non-combatants have so far surrendered.
