A female member of the Boko Haram has surrendered to the troops of Operation Hadin Kai in Konduga, Borno state.

The 25-year-old woman identified as Kaltum Dalha surrendered to troops at Forward Operating Base at about 11:00 a.m. on February 26, 2026.

She reportedly arrived from Sabsawa Village with her two-year-old child, Awana Dalha.

Preliminary investigations revealed that her husband, said to have been the terrorist commander of the Mairam Buri enclave, was neutralised by troops during a recent firefight as referenced in an earlier operational report.

The report indicated that the d3ath of her husband compelled her to surrender to troops.

She further confirmed during interrogation that the group had disintegrated following the elimination of their commander.

Operation Hadin Kai has sustained intensified offensives in recent months, resulting in the neutralisation of several terrorist commanders, arrests, recoveries of arms and ammunition, and the surrender of fighters and their family members.
