The United Nations has indicated readiness to partner with the governments of countries in the Lake Chad Basin region with the aim of bringing peace to the area which has been plagued by the Boko Haram crisis.
At least 240 Boko Haram fighters voluntarily surrendered to the Multinational Joint Task Force, MNJTF, on Monday after they came under intense pressure from troops.
Despite Saturday's twin suicide bomb blasts that killed nine people in Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State, a senior officer in the Cameroonian army has commended the Nigerian army for the success recorded against Boko Haram.
The Multinational Joint Task Force, MNJTF, engaged in clearance operations against Boko Haram terrorists in the North east has warned citizens especially those living in the insurgency ridden region to be security conscious as some remnants of the insurgents fleeing from the troops are relocating to remote settlements along the borders of neighbouring countries.
