Surrender Or Be Killed, DHQ Warns Terrorists

Abuja On Thursday, the Defense Headquarters (DHQ) issued a warning to fighters and terrorist leaders to surrender or face execution by Nigerian military forces.

Additionally, according to the military administration, 481 terrorists were killed by troops in October.

During the bimonthly media briefing on troops’ operational victories throughout the country, Major General Edward Buba, Director, Defence Media Operations (DMO), informed the media of this.

“Troops have done an amazing job of significantly dismantling the terror groups across the country, in various theaters of operations,” said General Buba.

“Undermining the capabilities of these terror groups and their allies is still our strategy.”

“Simultaneous strikes on several terrorist enclaves and hideouts across the country were conducted by troops,” he said.

“The Air Force conducted targeted bombings and air interdictions on these terrorist strongholds and hideouts, reducing their ability to fight.

The terrorists are well aware of our superior military might. They have two choices: give up or perish on the battlefield.

Accordingly, “some terrorist leaders, commanders, and combatants have indicated to surrender,” General Buba disclosed. For that reason, we are opening a surrendering corridor.

Additionally, he said, “481 terrorists were neutralized by troops in October 2024.” In addition, 741 people, including terrorists, were detained by the troops. Additionally, troops freed 492 prisoners who had been abducted.
