After about three years of attacks on security formations, public and worship places, the Jamaatul Ahjlil Sunna lidawati wal Jihad otherwise known as Boko Haram, on Monday agreed to cease fire.
The organisation’s Second Commander
(southern and northern Borno), Muhammed Abdulaziz, in a statement,
cited dialogue with the Borno State Government as reason.
In the statement released to journalists in Maiduguri, Borno State but e-mailed to reporters in Abuja, the group advised its members to lay down their arms.
But the Federal Government, in a swift reaction, said it would not make a formal pronouncement yet on the ceasefire.
Thank God that they have finally decided to cease fire.
