A notorious terrorist commander, known as Lawal Kwalba, has surrendered to troops.
In a statement on its verified Facebook page, the Nigerian Army said the suspected terrorist commander turned himself in on Tuesday, May 28, 2024, following intensified military operations targeting terrorist enclaves in Kaduna State.
According to the Facebook post: “The troops’ relentless operational activities have been pivotal in pressuring terrorist factions, leading to Kwalba’s decision to surrender with his fighters. This development marks a crucial step in the ongoing fight against terrorism in Kaduna State and the broader region. During the surrender, troops recovered two AK-47 rifles, a motorbike, and two magazines loaded with 7.62 mm special ammunition.” 
The army authorities said Kwalba is currently undergoing thorough profiling at a military facility, adding that the process is expected to provide valuable insights that could aid in dismantling the remaining terrorist networks.
