Senator Ali Ndume has critized the Federal Government decision to grant amnesty to repentant Bokoharam memebers.
Speaking on a BBC Hausa programme monitored in Kaduna State, The senator stated that a repentant Boko Haram member, who was recently integrated into the community, killed his father, stole his wealth and disappeared.
The senator also claimed that some members after been freed, Go back to the terrorist group.
He said: “They are like Kharajites. Many among those released have since run away. They will never repent. The government should know what to do about them, but not re-introducing someone who killed your parent or relations to you.
“Haba, not that he even apologised to the government. His thinking is that the government has failed; hence they are being pampered.”
“If there is sincerity of purpose in this, those in the Internally-Displaced Persons (IDPs) camps should have been trained in various trades, so that they could start life again,”
Also, Many Nigerians on social media has called upon the federal government to shut down the initiative, Saying it is unacceptable and perilous to the society.
The Nigerian Military had earlier announced that 603 repentant Boko Haram terrorists who had been rehabilitated will be re-integrated into the society in June, as more fighters surrender.
