Muhammad Abubakar, a 31-year-old man has revealed a self shocking confession about Boko Haram Terrorist.
Speaking on Thursday, the ex-Boko Haram member disclosed that his hand and leg were chopped off because he was planning to surrender and quit the battle in Sambisa forest.
Mr. Abubakar disclosed this to journalists in Maiduguri during a briefing organised by Lucky Irabor, the Theatre Commander, Operation Lafiya Dole, to update journalists on ‘Operation Rescue Finale’.
According to him,“I had told a friend, Hassan Dan-Guduma, that I was going to surrender as the movement had no meaning to me anymore.
“Hassan Dan-Guduma initially bought my idea but later betrayed me. Shortly after our discussion, he went and came back with three others whom I am sure he must have told them about our plan to surrender.
“They said I was planning to exposed them to the Nigerian Government, so they did all this to me.
“After they chopped off my right hand and left leg, they threw me into a culvert where I was left struggling, until soldiers came and rescued me.
“All I can say is that all we had been told by Boko Haram leaders, were lies and misleading. I never joined them to kill anyone,” he said.
Lucky Irabor, the Theatre Commander, said Mr. Abubakar was still undergoing interrogation. “You can see what they did to one of their own because he decided to quit,” said Mr. Irabor.
