The leader of Jama'atu Ahlis Sunnah Lidda'awati Wal Jihad, also referred to as Boko Haram, Imam Abubakar Shekau, on whose head United States place a $7 million ransom yesterday evening appeared in a fresh video, saying he personally led recent attacks in Damaturu, Yobe State on October 24th 2013.
A military source who watched the brand new video in Damaturu told SaharaReporters that, Imam Shekau boasted of overrunning Nigerian military, explaining that the sect will triumph over military and set up Islamic government under Allah's descriptions, despite Nigeria's government resistance.
Continue after the break.
Also, Shekau displays a cache of arms including AK47 guns, RPGs and a big sum of ammunition, he claimed the sect seized from Nigerian troops.
Shekau in the video also disclosed that the Damaturu attack was among the sects most successful operations as it killed several Nigerian soldiers.
He further took a swipe at the federal government sanctioned “Dialogue and Amnesty Committee” led by Minister of Special Duties, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki claiming it was a deceitful plot targeted at creating division within the Boko Haram sect.
He added that they cannot know the committee and experienced nothing related to it. Shekau was silent on the attack on a wedding convoy that left about 30 people dead through the weekend, that has been today refuted by 7th Division of the Nigerian Army in Maiduguri.
This really is his third appearance in a movie following the military declared him dead in July.
