The University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID) has signed a memorandum of understanding with the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and Norwegian Embassy to work out a programme on de-radicalisation of repentant members of Boko Haram terrorist group.
This was disclosed by the university’s vice chancellor, Prof Ibrahim A. Njodi during UNIMAID’s 40th anniversary combined with 22nd convocation at convocation square.
He said there was partnership between the university and UNICEF on securing the schools project while the institution would continue to look at all avenues for support and collaborations.
Njodi also said that there were plans by the university to organise an international conference on the Boko Haram terrorist to facilitate research into the mystery behind the insurgency.
He added that the move is pursuant to President Muhammadu Buhari’s call during his inaugural speech on in- depth research towards understanding the insurgency and it is the mandate of school in solving societal problems through research.
