Boko Haram Leader Shekau Not Deposed – Military Sources by thinkdip(m): 12:13pm On Aug 03, 2013
Military sources have waved
off reports on the Sheikh
Abubakar Shekau had been
shot and deposed as leader
of Islamist sect group, Boko
Haram.
According to the sources,
the intention of the false
report is to mislead both the
government and members
of the public.
“It is not true,” a senior army
officer said about the report.
Also on Wednesday, the
defence headquarters
disclosed that the joint
intelligence sharing and
military cooperation
between the Nigeria and
Niger Republic has helped to
foil the plan by some Boko
Haram insurgents that
escaped the onslaught by
the troops of the Joint Task
Force (JTF), to regroup for
counter-offensive.
Meanwhile, Chairman,
Presidential Committee on
Dialogue and Peaceful
Resolution on Security
Challenges in the North
(Amnesty Committee) and
the minister of special
duties, Alhaji Tanimu Turaki,
SAN, has refused to speak on
the purported overthrow of
the Boko Haram boss.
Turaki who recently
announced a ceasefire deal
with the sect had
maintained that the Amnesty
Committee is negotiating
with “authentic” Boko
Haram.
Shekau had released a video
to dismiss the reports of a
ceasefire deal, but Turaki
had said the committee
negotiated the deal with
Shekau’s deputy Sheikh
Abdulazeez.
Shekau had in the video
released after the
announcement of the
ceasefire agreement,
disowned Sheikh
Abdulazeez.
He said: “We are stating it
categorically that we are not
in any dialogue or ceasefire
agreement with anyone. And
we have never asked
anybody in the name
Abdulazeez to represent me,
Abubakar Shekau, the leader
of this movement.
“I swear by Allah that
Abdulazeez or whatever he
calls himself did not get any
authority from me to
represent me in any capacity.
I do not know him. And if
we per adventure encounter
Abulazeez and his group, I
swear by Allah we are going
to mete them with the grave
judgment that Allah has
prescribed for their likes in
the holy book.”

Am I surprise? No. I already knew all along that the report about shakau being shot was just another wonderful crap invented by Evils at the top. A grand design to buy time, equipments and lunch more violence against innocent people afterwards. Boko haram, their sponsors as we know it are liars. That so called committee on dialogue should be disbanded with immediate effect. What a waste of tax payers funds for a useless cause. So much for a committee of liars.
