Former Boko Haram terrorists protest over non-payment of their allowance in Borno

Some former Boko Haram terrorists have embarked on a protest in Borno state over non-payment of their allowance.

The former terrorists who are being held at Hajj Camp in Borno after surrendering to the Nigerian government caused a gridlock after blocking the Bulumkutu-Maiduguri highway during the protest on Friday, August 18, 2023.

They accused the federal government of withholding the N30k allowance they were promised.

The video of the protest has sparked outrage on social media as Nigerians berate Former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration for paying the ex-terrorists while Doctors embark on numerous strikes.
