A Boko Haram terrorist identified as Bashir Bulabuduwaye, said to be the chief execution responsible for the death of at least 1000 people has surrendered to the troops of the Nigerian Army.
Zagazola Makama, a publication focused on the Lake Chad region revealed that Bulabuduwaye surrendered alongside his family members on Monday in Banki, Bama LGA of Borno state.
The publication noted that Bulabuduwaye was Boko Haram’s chief executioner who has “killed at least 1,000 people who were captured and sentenced to death by the terrorist group”.
A source that spoke with the publication said Bulabuduwaye was “known to be an official who carried out the sentence of death on condemned persons, captured military men and civilians when Abubakar Shekau was the leader of the group.”
A further report revealed that Bulabuduwaye had a camp in Kote village of Banki, where he was hiding with other fighters.
Bulabuduwaye surrendered due to the sustained offensives launched by troops of operation Hadin Kai.
The source said, “It was difficult for him to access food and other logistics, coupled with the flooding which already ravaged most of their settlements. He also feared battlefield elimination by ISWAP.”
