The conference, tagged \u201cLake Chad Basin: Key Steps Towards Comprehensive Regional Solutions\u201d with focus on how to effectively manage mass surrenders by Boko Haram and ISWAP fighters through Disarmament, Demobilization and Reintegration (DDR), is taking place at Wilton Park, located at Winston House in Sussex, United Kingdom.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The conference has participants drawn from the military, managers of violent extremist groups, political leaders, the academia, humanitarian and development partners, diplomats, communication persons, and post conflict management experts from the UK and other developed countries as well as countries in the Lake Chad: Nigeria, Chad, Niger and Cameroon.<\/div>\n

The conference began on Monday and it was facilitated through the Lake Chad Basin Regional Strategy for Stabilization Recovery and Resilience, which provides framework for conflict interventions by development partners.<\/div>\n

Zulum detailed the State\u2019s immediate, short and long term plans for stabilization and development as well as how the State is responding to the mass surrender of over 35,000 repentant fighters from<\/div>\n
Boko Haram and ISWAP.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Governor also discussed recent efforts by the Nigerian Government with President Muhammadu Buhari\u2019s appointment of a Presidential committee on repatriation, return and resettlement of displaced persons in the North-East, which has been tasked with resettling IDPs, supporting successful repatriation of over 190,000 Nigerian refugees, and managing mass surrender of insurgents.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Other speakers from different countries shared experiences and knowledge peculiar to communities in countries of the Lake Chad.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
