#Breaking: Terwase (GANA), An Allegged Repentant Militant Killed In Benue | CABLE REPORTERS




The Commander of the Four Special Forces command, Doma local government area, Brigadier General Maude Ali Gadzama on Tuesday confirmed to Channels Television via telephone the killing of Terwase Akwaza, alias Gana.


Gadzama revealed Gana was killed this evening in a firefight with military personnel.


However, the Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, said soldiers snatched Gana from a government convoy of repentant militants in Gboko.



Earlier on Tuesday, Gana, along with 172 militia boys, had reportedly surrendered amid traditional rulers, priests, and local government officials in Katsina-Ala local government in Benue.


They were on their way to Makurdi when they were intercepted by military officials, Ortom said.



In 2015, Gana was offered an amnesty but returned to his alleged criminal activities.


In 2017, the Nigerian police declared Gana wanted after he was alleged to have killed “several innocent persons”.
