Mahmud Mamman Nur Albarnawy, the eldest son of the founder of the Islamic State of the West African Province (ISWAP), Mamman Nur, has surrendered to the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC in Maiduguri.

Mahmud, who is 22 years old, surrendered on Sunday, May 12.

Mahmud Mamman Nur Albarnawy was confirmed to be the senior son of the late ISWAP founder after undergoing profiling at the Command Headquarters of NSCDC in Maiduguri.

A Lake Chad Basin counterterrorism and insurgency expert, Zagazola Makama, quoted intelligence sources as revealing that the command facilitated his surrender through his uncle in Gamborun Ngala after receiving information that he was willing to formally surrender to the Nigerian government.

A reliable agent was reportedly sent to convey Mahmud to Maiduguri, and they arrived on May 11, at approximately 1 pm.

Mahmud was then debriefed and profiled by an intelligence officer of the command.

During the process, he confessed to sneaking out of the Ali Ngulde camp in Mandara Mountain, Gwoza LGA, and staying in Gwange, the city capital, for about a month before relocating to Gamboru Ngala without raising any alarm or distress signs from the communities.

While residing in Gamboru Ngala, some of his late father’s supporters urged him to return to the Lake Chad region to pledge loyalty to ISWAP, but he declined, pointing out his father’s betrayal and tragic fate.

He admitted to participating in assaults in Bama, Banki, Gwoza, and various other locations as a mid-level combatant within the Boko Haram organization.

Mahmud was transferred to the Bulunkutu Rehabilitation Centre for additional processing and supervision.
