Boko Haram leader-Abubakar Shekau
By Sani Tukur
The Nigerian military has announced that it has
killed the deputy leader of the Boko Haram
sect during onslaught against the group in
Borno State.
The military Joint Task Force, JTF, said it killed
Momodu Bama – aka Abu Saad – on August 4,
during an offensive by the sect on a Mobile
Police Base, and Bama Town.
Abu Saad was Boko Haram’s Operation Officer
and second in command to Abubakar Shekau
and was one of the most “vicious and heartless
killer in the group with penchant for
slaughtering his victims,” the military said in a
statement on Tuesday.
Before his death, the JTF placed a N25 million
bounty on him.
The military said Abu Saad was killed alongside
his father, Abatcha Flatari, who was described
as “one the spiritual mentors” of Boko Haram.
He was “in charge of indoctrinating child foot
soldiers who are mainly abducted children,”
Sagir Musa, spokesman of the Borno JTF, said
in the statement.
The military increased its offensive on the sect
and other criminal groups in three northeastern
states – Adamawa, Borno, and Yobe – after a
State of Emergency was declared there in May.
