MAIDUGURI — The Borno State Government has reintegrated 720 men, 992 spouses, and 2,050 children who had surrendered under its non-kinetic peacebuilding framework, popularly known as the “Borno Model.”
The beneficiaries, described as Batch 9 low-risk and minor clients, were formally released during a ceremony at the Hajj Camp in Maiduguri after undergoing deradicalisation, disarmament, rehabilitation, and vocational training.
According to officials, the programme is part of ongoing efforts to consolidate peace in the North-East through reintegration of repentant insurgents who voluntarily surrendered to security forces.
