Despite recent reports of his death, leader ofBoko Haram,Abubakar Shekauhas appeared in a new video.
The latest clip was obtained by AFP and in it, Shekau claims that his men shot down an Air Force jet that was used in an operation against the sect and went missing three weeks ago.
The Nigerian military on September 24 issued a statement claiming that Shekau had been killed in Konduga, Borno stateafter pictures of his purported corpse surfaced on the internet.
In the 36-minute video, Shekau said:
"Here I am, alive. I will only die the day Allah takes my breath," "We are running our caliphate, our Islamic caliphate. We follow the Koran... We now practise the injunctions of the Koran in the land of Allah,"
The Nigerian military previously claimed to have killed Shekau in 2013 but he dismissed those claims as well although it is believed that another man took his place.
Defence spokesperson, General Chris Olukolade has said that “Shekau” might have become a brand namebut it is believed that the man in the new video is the same one who was reportedly killed last month.

Exactly!
From what am seeing right now,
probably,GEJ,the nig. army and a host of others will definitely be swimming in an ocean of confusion cos this issue of insecurity has become like a mistry.
I bet if they knw the next step to take but,i pray that those fellas should come up with an oustanding techinique in order to curb this insecurity of a thing!
