Musa Mani, top Commander ISWAP surrenders

A top commander of the Islamic State of the West Africa Province (ISWAP), Musa Mani, has surrendered to the troops of the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) following sustained joint operations on the fringes of Lake Chad.

Zagazola Makama, a counterinsurgency Expert and Security Analyst in Lake Chad disclosed this on his Twitter handle on Saturday.

Makama gathered that Mani, who was from Diffa in the Niger Republic, surrendered to troops of the task force in Damasak and Malam Fatori.

“The suspects told troops that dozens of fighters had died while many had escaped due to the fear of being killed.

“The suspect is currently undergoing profiling in troops’ custody,” he added.
