There has been a surge of fury over the actual video itself, with people claiming it differs from his usual style. It had elements of Cirque du Soleil and weird in terms of date and time. As we all know, Shekau is always keeping tracks of his activities with dates, but in these very video there was none. Shekau had already filmed, choreographed and directed & produced this video himself before his death, knowing that his death is near. We should expect more and more of this. This monster is a good director and a film character who knows how to inject fear on Nigerians. If you look at the video, it didn't have the usual fitness for Shekau's video presence, though the background of the animation had a slight resemblance to the previous video he did when he picked up the chibok girls.There must be a reason for this!! first, may be he intend to rule his cronies posthumously, maintain his status even in death as the commander of his ragtag boko-haram group, and importantly continue to build momentum and courage to his deceived ragtag followers in continuing his fight for an IS state. The military should continue in there effort in wiping this scourge called boko-haram. I do know its a battle difficult to win due to moles in the military and government but its a battle they must not afford to loose.
