ISIS Announces Abu Musab Al-Barnawi As New Boko Haram Leader To Replace Shekau by senier007(op): 11:09am On Aug 03, 2016
The so-called Islamic State (IS) jihadist group has announced a new leader for its West African branch, popularly known as Boko Haram. 

The latest issue of an IS magazine featured what it called its first interview with Abu Musab al-Barnawi, who replaces the eccentric Abubakar Shekau. 

In a video clip released in January 2015, Mr al-Barnawi described himself as the spokesman for Boko Haram. This was before the Nigeria-based jihadist group pledged allegiance to IS. 

Now IS says he has replaced Mr Shekau, who has not made a verified appearance in any video since August 2015.

New government in place needs new leadership in place, shekau was only powerful under the last dispensation ever since Sai baba enter shekau simple went into oblivious without traces, hence the need for the group to adjust and adapt, but just like the last admnistration, their best time has gone with the last Admin, never again will they make noise like before or even cause collective injury like before.
IS is on the defence everywhere,
Libya they are been defeated,
In Syria is same story,
In Iraq is even worst,
In Nigeria they have been technically defeated with no morale or fighting force to attack institutions.

Buhari has restrategised his jihadist army aka BOKO HARAM
Re: ISIS Announces Abu Musab Al-Barnawi As New Boko Haram Leader To Replace Shekau by Guyman02:
This confirms what we have long suspected that America, France and Britain are behind ISIS.
Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov also stated yesterday that with the level of publicity that 'Islamic State' gets in the western media he can prove that their is a collaboration between them and western special services.
https://www.rt.com/politics/354286-chechen-leader-dismisses-fresh-is/

If Nigeria wants to solve the Boko Haram menace it should start from US and British embassies in Abuja, they know where to locate Shekau, they used him for a political purpose (not religious) same way they used Alqaeda for regime change in Libya and its affiliate Al Nusra in Syria called 'moderate rebels' despite all their public beheading of Syrian citizens by the same complicit western media like BBC as the conspire to remove Assad from power until the Russians came to Syria's rescue.

Remember also that the Russians and China were among the few countries that helped Nigeria with weapons to push back Boko Haram prior to the 2015 elections and it is the same Russian equipment which PMB inherited that is still being used today by the Nigerian to achieve the success they have made so far in the fight against BH.
US and the West blocked every means of acquiring weapons by the GEJ administration so as to frustrate the fight against BH and even when he resorted to the black market they still used South Africa to blackmail him with seized funds in a private jet meant for arms purchase, when Israel wanted to help Nigeria, America threatened them with sanctions.

Please Nigerians let us not spend time on this topic about who is the new Boko Haram leader from a western media, let us still assume he remains Shekau and not Al Barna-Anything from the BBC, which they will spend time analysing in the next coming days on CNN, Aljazeera, Fox etc with many paid 'analysts and experts' based in London and Washington because they know many Nigerians are hooked to their channels and cant think for ourselves.

Donald Trump just called CNN 'Clinton News Network' because of their bias in news coverage.

I am not a supporter of Buhari but I can see that the western media propaganda is gradually beginning to build up against him by making Boko Haram to look strong again from the Telegraph to the BBC just like they did to GEJ.

Must you guys politicise everything? This is not about Buhari, not about Jonathan,not about APC, not about PDP. This is about Nigeria.

Nigeria , the only country you can call your own. You live here, your family does, your friends do, your babe probably does.

What if we all just put our biases aside and put this country first.
