Cameroon Military Kill Abubakar Shekau, Boko Haram Leader ……Five Insurgents Surrender, Beg Jonathan For Mercy

The menace of Boko Haram took a new twist yesterday (September 21, 2015) when the Cameroon army in a rare show of bravado, released the photographs of the Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau to the public, claiming he was killed during a cross border raid deep inside Nigeria by the Cameroon military.

The Street Journal reliably gathered from a Cameroon military source late last night that Abubakar Shekau was killed following an aerial bombardment of his hideout inside Nigeria. The Cameroon army has ever since yesterday been in serious combat against thousands of Boko Haram fighters trying to enter Cameroon via Fotokol from Gambaral Ngala in Nigeria.

It was further gathered that the development has put the Boko Haram camp in disarray in Nigeria culminating in the devastating blow the insurgents experienced in Konduga, near Maiduguri on Friday. The Nigeria Army had on Sunday (September 21, 2014) announced the capture of a number of insurgents.

A week after soldiers stopped the Boko Haram insurgents from taking over Konduga, a town 35 kilometers from the Borno State capital, Maiduguri, the military has said five members of the insurgent group have surrendered in the town.

In a tweet on Sunday, the Defence Headquarters, DHQ, said five members of the Boko Haram on Saturday surrendered their weapons to soldiers

The military said the insurgents surrendered because they could not endure the massive onslaught by troops. It said the insurgents also pleaded for mercy.

The DHQ also said other captured insurgents are giving useful information on the group’s subsequent attack plans.

Several battles between the military and the Boko Haram in the past week in different Borno towns have left scores of people dead

The latest of such occurred on Friday in Mainok, a village about 56 kilometres from Maiduguri. The insurgents had attacked the village on Friday afternoon killing about 20 people.

A senior security official in Maiduguri, on condition of anonymity, said at least 48 insurgents were killed by soldiers who chased them while the former returned to their base in Damboa Town.
The official blamed poor service by telecom networks for the late arrival of soldiers to prevent the Mainok attack.

“Due to the poor telecom network around Mainok town, troops (from 7 Division in Maiduguri) could not get the alert on time, until they (Boko Haram) had attacked and killed some of the traders – about 20 or so – and even stole money and food items from the poor traders”, the official told The Street Journal.

“But as soon as the message got to us, troops arrived Mainok and tracked them towards the direction and were able to intercept them as they were taking some rest or attending to a broken down vehicle.

“It was another tough battle but within hours, our gallant soldiers subdued them, as we counted 48 corpses and recovered several weapons and vehicle abandoned by some few others who fled.”

The handling of the Boko Haram menace had put to question the capability of the Nigeria military to contain insurgency in the country, leading to a big blow on the armed forces’ integrity.



A top government official who spoke with The Street Journal on condition of anonymity said the alleged killing of Shekau by the Cameroon military would further erode whatever remains of the integrity of the Nigeria Army.

He noted with dismay the menace of Boko Haram had caused Nigeria, particularly, in the North Eastern region of the country thousands of lives with properties worth billions of naira destroyed while the military had exhibited helplessness in the fight against the insurgents.

This looks for real...shekau is truly dead! So U̶̲̥̅̊ mean Cameroon carried out an operation deep inside Nigerian territory? Kudos to our soldiers but shame on our military heads who sent these soldiers on kamikaze mission. Thank God cameroon was able to backup their claims with pictures unlike Nigeria that'll make an empty/false claim and later refute it.

The video evidence of BH Konduga casualties in the link above was uploaded on the 12th of September, 2014 . . .If you watch the video at 6:23 mins, you will see the alleged body of Amir Shekau

The Cameroonian authorities shouldn't be using the cautious silence of the NA for cheap ego boosting propaganda

Hmm... people believing this report because 'it's not from the Nigerian government' obviously have a problem that might never be solved. I'll rather believe a report from the Nigerian government any day than one coming from any other African country.

Leave that guy, he's one of those frustrated nigerians who reason upside down.

Meanwhile, i don't know who are the liars between Cameroon's solders and Street journal, bcs this very pics of the said slain shekau has been on parade sis last Friday in the battle of konduga when nigerian soldiers killed scores of the insurgents.

For the street journal to come up with this that it happened yesterday during Cameroonian soldiers raid of the insurgents hide out or cross border operation raises so many questions. And also for them ( street journal) to say "if shekau has actually been killed by Cameroon soldiers will further hamper the already damaged integrity of nigerian soldiers" is something to worry about.

Tagging nigerian soldiers as looking helpless and not competent to handle the insurgents is another reason for me to ignore this report, and see it as a way to divert the glory meant for our gallant soldiers to the foreign troops, and thus kill the already high morale of nigerian soldiers.

You're on point Bro,
And that's why President GEJ GCFR MUST, I said, MUST not reopen our borders with Cameroun (that were shut because of ebola).
I'm a die hard GEJ supporter, but I might campaign agaist him should he re-open those borders. Let them remain closed till at least one year into his second term in office.
The long awaited closure of these Borders with Cameroun has actually led to a drastic reduction in BH Terrorist activities.

May thunder strike you there. Why must you always desecrate your country to prove a point? And so what if Cameroon soldiers kill Shekau. Where were they when this same Shekau used their soil to launch attack against Nigeria. Oh, is it because he has become a torn to their interest, then the sudden wake from their slumber. This Boko Haram insurgency should be an eye opener on Nigeria. It is a reality check for us knowing that these neighboring countries don't wish us well - especially Cameroon under Biya's regime. Ah! How I long for the days of Abacha. By now BH and their Cameroon accomplices would have had it soooooooo hot.
