“744 Ex-Boko Haram Fighters Set Free” — Nigerians React In Fear As Military Moves To Reintegrate Former Insurgents

Fresh fear and outrage are spreading across Nigeria after the military confirmed the release of 744 former Boko Haram fighters.

The ex-combatants were said to have completed a 24-week rehabilitation programme under Operation Safe Corridor in Gombe State.

But instead of relief, the news has triggered serious backlash.

See why this decision is causing tension everywhere above before it escalates. Don’t miss what many Nigerians are urgently saying right now.

Many citizens say the move feels too fast and risky, especially for communities still healing from years of deadly attacks.

Families who lost loved ones are asking hard questions about justice and fairness.

Some Nigerians fear the decision could put lives at risk if proper monitoring is not in place.

Others are worried about what happens next, especially with unemployment already high.
