According to a report by Punch Metro, the General Officer Commander, 7 Division, Major Gen Abdulmalik Biu, says repentant terrorists who lay down their arms stand the chance of becoming great in society and even emerging as the President of Nigeria.

Biu said this during an interview with journalists in Borno state while calling on Boko Haram members to lay down their arms.

He said, "Boko Haram should lay down their arms unconditionally and be accepted in their community; opportunities are out there for them. They can be rehabilitated. An ex-Boko Haram member who has laid down his arms and turns away from negativity stands to become the President of this country and take up any position in this country."
