Boko Haram leader Imam Abubakar Shekau said yesterday that he is alive, contrary to the claim of the Joint Task Force(JTF).
He said he would die at the appointed time.
Shekau, in a new video, said the sect was responsible for last Tuesday’s killing of about 161 travellers in serial attacks in Benisheik, Borno State.
According to a post on an online site, “Information Nigeria”, Shekau appeared in a latest video, where he was quoted as saying: “Here I am, alive, hale and hearty.”
The site claimed that Shekau appeared in military camouflage, seated and surrounded by hooded insurgents.
He faulted the purported claim of the JTF spokesman, Sagir Musa, on August 19 that he had been killed during an encounter in Sambisa Forest.
But the video was not seen by our correspondent.
Shekau said: “ Sagir Musa should bury himself in shame. President Jonathan (of Nigeria) should bury himself in shame. President Obama (of United States of America) should bury himself in shame and President Francois Hollande (of France) should bury himself in shame. Queen Elizabeth (of England) should bury herself in shame.
“They said I am dead, but here I am. The world should know that I am alive and will only die at the appointed time.Everybody should be judged according to the dictates of his conscience.
“What I am doing is written in the Holy Qur’an and the Hadith and I will not stop. I challenge all the clerics of the world to question my deeds. Those underrating my capacity should have a re-think. I will never allow democracy to thrive.
“The concept of Government of the people by the people for the people will never be possible and will never exist. Democracy shall be replaced only by the government of Allah, from Allah and for Allah.”
The site quoted Shekau as claiming victory over the Nigerian military.
Shekau added: “Nigerian soldiers are late. After killing many of them in Monguno and Benisheik, we have snatched their armoured carriers and Hilux van and then hoisted Islamic flags on them. We now move freely with them.”
The JTF had on August 19 declared that Shekau might have died during a shoot-out with troops in Sambisa Forest.
Although the JTF claimed that Shekau was allegedly killed on June 30, the military high command, especially the Defence Headquarters, felt the conclusion was hasty.
The then spokesman of the JTF in Borno State, Lt. Col. Musa, said: “Intelligence report available to the Joint Task Force (JTF) Operation Restore Order revealed that Abubakar Shekau, the most dreaded and wanted terrorists leader, may have died.
“He died of gunshots wounds received in an encounter with the JTF in one of their camps in Sambisa Forest on 30th June, 2013.
“Shekau was mortally wounded in the encounter and was sneaked into Amitchide-a border community in Cameroon for treatment from which he never recovered.”
