The Nigerian Military last week, released 601 repentant Boko
Haram terrorists into the community after they completed the Deradicalization,
Rehabilitation, and Reintegration program organized by the Operation Safe
Corridor of the Military.
In an interview with BBC Hausa on Wednesday July 29, Ndume
who represents Borno South Senatorial District, said the rehabilitation
exercise is unacceptable by his people. According to him, the sect members will
never repent from their wicked ways.
Kicking against the program, Ndume said
“This government’s programme is unacceptable to our people.
The right thing is to stop it, forthwith. Not that they even apologised to you,
they apologized to the government with the thinking that government has failed
and that is why they are being pampered,” he said.
They are like Kharajites. Many among those released have
since run away. They will never repent.
The government should know what to do about them. But not
re-introducing someone to you, who has killed your parent, or your relations.
“If there is sincerity of purpose in this, those in the IDP
camps should be trained in various trades and vocation so that they could start
life again.”
