In the same vein, on 5 Mar 23 one Abubakar Usman was arrested with First Bank ATM card and invoice containing the lists of items to procure and possibly deliver to the terrorists. During the preliminary interrogation, the suspect confessed that he has been involved in supply of several logistics to the terrorists.

5. In another development, on 5 Mar 23, one Bakote Mohammed and Baba Kura Hala who escaped from BHT surrendered to the troops of Sector 3 deployed at Kijimatari in Monguno. Both are currently being profiled. On the same day, a Boko Haram Terrorist named Banna Modu surrendered to MNJTF Sector 3 deployed at Kijimatari in Monguno. The terrorist claimed to have lost interest in the struggle having operated in Mafa, Dikwa, Maiduguri and Gajram general areas. Similarly, the troops of Sector 4 MNJTF Quick Response Force Niger while on fighting patrol intercepted a Golf car containing 24 by 25 litres of petrol. The suspect is undergoing investigation. Also, troops of Sector 4 MNJTF conducted a night patrol along Ngagam – Djalori Axis where they rescued 3 women alongside their 4 children. The women were from Sambisa Forest. Preliminary investigation revealed that the families were fleeing from the fighting between the BHT and ISWAP from Sambisa forest. In a related encouraging development, on 8 Mar 23 troops of MNJTF
Sector 3 Nigeria deployed at Damasak conducted clearance operation. During the operation, they intercepted BHT Families members which included 43 women and 30 children. They are currently receiving medical attention and profiling. Similarly in the last one month as a result of infighting by the Boko haram and ISWAP terrorist groups and effects of MNJTF and other national operations bombardment and especially effects of air strikes, continuous movements of large bodies of people from the Sambisa forests to the lake Chad basin have been observed. In joint coordinated operations between Sectors 3 and 4 of the MNJTF in the Kamadougu Yobe river general area along the Nigeria/ Niger common border areas , over 900 people made up of women, children and elderly people suspected to be families and collaborators of the insurgents have been arrested. Collaboration with national authorities and subsequent profiling and handover is ongoing.

6. In his massage to the troops, the Force Commander MNJTF commended the efforts of the troops and especially the commanders for their coordination of these operations, he urged them not to relent in degrading the BHT/ISWAP logistics couriers which would have an overall impact positively on our counter Insurgency operations. He reminded them that the insurgency is almost collapsed and urged them to collectively deal a death blow on the insurgents. He reassured them of the support of Headquarters MNJTF always and called on the population of the Lake Chad Basin to be observant and report any suspicious activity to the Security forces.
