MNJTF fighting insurgency in the Lake Chad region says 263 Boko Haram terrorists and their families have surrendered to troops.
MNJTF received a boost from the European Union via logistics support items to enhance its operational efficiency and capabilities.
Mr Abdullahi said that the terrorists surrendered during joint maritime operations between Cameroon and Nigerian forces.
Mr Abdullahi said that the operation marked a blow to terrorist capabilities in the area.
He urged the public not to panic by the troops’ movements but to offer support to them to eradicate the terrorists.
According to Mr Abdullahi, last Tuesday, two commanders, four fighters and their 24 family members also surrendered.
