Born on the 14th of July 1974 (source: wikipedia), Abubakar Shekau, the leader of the fearsome Islamic terrorist group, Boko Haram has clocked 46 years old today.

Coincidentally, he assumed the role of leader and number one man of the militant group in July 2009, Abubakar Shekau has enjoyed 11 good years of his life leading the group that has been causing Nigerians pain.

Having joined the group in 2002, after he came in contact with Mohammed Yusuf, the former leader and founder of the group, it would took Abubakar Shekau 7 years to get to the top, making it 18 years in total that he has been part of the very same group responsible for taking the lives of hundreds of thousands of Nigerians, Chadians and Cameroonians, displacing millions others.

Nicknamed “Darul Tawheed”, meaning "specialist in tawheed", which is the Islamic concept of oneness of Allah, Abubakar Mohammed Al-Sheikawi believes in the monotheistic nature of God and that anyone who accepts polytheism and western influenced education or practice must die.

Born in Yobe State, Abubakar Shekau is a Kanuri man, and also a Salafi, an Islamic doctrine that believes in keeping hold of ancient practices and stand against any form of innovation.

Bad memories come to mind when the name, Abubakar Shekau is mentioned. Seeing and knowing that a man responsible for depriving people peace, and rest of mind has just turned 46 years is painful.

A lot of innocent bloods has been shed at his command. Thousands of people have lost their homes and hundreds others have become strangers in their own backyard because of him.

I remember Inspector James and Lance Corporal Emmanuel. I remember the many soldiers and gallant men who fell while trying to protect the rest of us from this man. I remember the many others who are still alive but in danger of getting hurt because this man is somewhere there trying to hurt our country.

At his call, young brainwashed men wrap and blow themselves up with explosives, taking their lives and that of others. They think they are fighting for God, but rather they are fighting for themselves, carrying out the commands of a mere mortal who thinks that he has the power of life and death in his hands.

When others celebrate their birthdays, the world becomes happy, jubilant and excited that another circle has been completed in the age of a citizen of the world. But can we do the same for Abubakar Shekau?

In 2009, the Nigerian security forces thought he had been killed after the clash they had with Boko Haram, However, he resurfaced in a video debunking the news, showing himself fit as a fiddle. Since then, Abubakar Shekau has been reportedly killed over 4 times, but he still came out to deny every single report of his death.

May this birthday be his last. This is my wish and prayer for Abubakar Shekau and Boko Haram.
