Boko Haram, ISWAP: Why Buhari Government Can Never Kill Repentant Terrorists – Lai Mohammed
The Nigerian government has explained why Boko Haram fighters who have surrendered cannot be murdered.
Minister of Information and Culture Lai Mohammed stated that providing amnesty was the wisest option.
Mohammed explained that prosecuting and killing repentant insurgents was against global best practices.
He spoke in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Washington.
According to Mohammed: “I personally spoke to the military authority before I left Nigeria and they said what they were doing is what the global practice dictates about soldiers that surrendered that should be treated as prisoners of war.
“You cannot just shoot them because there are international conventions that give rights also to prisoners of war
