The session was conducted using the #WhatDoesBHWant hashtag. Follow it, and you’ll find other tweets especially questions and responses not included below.
Salkida’s tweets are very revealing and very frightening, particularly the ones about the link with the Islamic State (ISIS), and how difficult it would be for the Nigerian Federal Government to reclaim territory captured by the group.

From 2012 to date BH have killed & beheaded even their members & Ansaru for breaching Bai’a (pledge) to Shekau, ½#WhatdoesBHwant

— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
BH got its major initial funding frm what they call ‘Fai’u’ robbery. Btw 2010/12 over 500M naia was carted away frm banks #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
BH r also engaged in 'extortion,' small scale & high profile kidnapping, and ransom is their biggest war chest #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Noncombatant or inactive members also contribute proceeds from their businesses from all over Africa #WhatdoesBHwant

What do they really want #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
BH wants to implement their brand of Sharia. Muslims, Christians or Atheists who oppose their doctrine will be attacked #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Except according to them d 'unbelievers' in their caliphate will pay tax & live according to certain rules set by them #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
If by tmrw d Sultan of Sokoto becomes Nigeria’s leader & every Christian convert to Islam, BH will continue their onslaught #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Their grouse is wt d institutn of democracy & our way of life. To BH, both supporters & secular institutns must be destroyed #WhatdoesBHwant

The chances of BH agreeing to a ceasefire/retreat frm captured territories thru peaceful means as recently announced is 1/10 #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Danladi Ahmadu who is claiming to be working with d FG on peace settlement has nothing to do wt BH as a group or its leaders #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
The name Danladi in d first place based on BH doctrine is Kufr, d name means someone born on Sunday which to BH is apostasy #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Again Danladi, always refer to Allah as 'Ubangijji' in Hausa, a name BH consider to be Shirk (deification). #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Using d prefix of Uba (father) & gijji, a name of an idol, Ubangijji (Master of gijji) is a word BH leaders preach against #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
BH believes that their "success" is built wt d blood/Shahada of their brethren & many prefer to die in war than in peacetime #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Any negotiation by BH will have to be strictly guided by Sharia & NO govt will suspend its constitutn bcz its treason #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
The Danladi saga reveals absolute lack of basic knowledge by those prosecuting the war on terror in Nigeria #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Captives can be released based on a swap arrangement but for d FG to get BH to dialogue they have to change d tide #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
In May 2014 BH had agreed to release captives for 400 of their members but few hours to d swap d FG called it off. #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Shekau then became angry when d swap in May was called off. He then shifted d goal post to ‘all members’ (over 2000) of them #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
What affected my intervention with two other passionate & patriotic Nigerians was unhealthy rivalry #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
and backstabbing by different cliques around d president, even d agencies of govt r not holistic in their work #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Anybody that claim BH will release captives for 10 or 30 detain members is being misled by his contacts if he has any #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
The idea of releasing a few Commanders came about by some middle level BH members that think Shekau may have cold feet ½ #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
if he sees some of his associates after long, he may reverse to d May 2014 concessns which seem more doable for any govt 2/2 #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
The BH doctrine, according to its leaders, attach d same value to both foot soldiers & leaders. Any loyal BH valuable #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
I have alwys said on this street & in a recent interview that d release of chibokgirls should have been a national emergency #WhatdoeBHwnt
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
However, I strongly believe that Shekau said he married out all chibokgirls in anger. He will not repeat previous threats #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
To repeat the same threat more than twice, according to sources, present d group as weak going by their 'conquest' #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
Shekau value his membrs in detentn probably more than d girls, so chances r he can let them go esp if d girls want 2 return #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
The decision to free captives is, if they prefer to leave & if Shekau is satisfied wt d number of prisoners to be swapped #WhatDoesBHWant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
For chibok mothers they don’t care if their daughter’s r married or not, they want them back home that is what is important #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
The Cameroun govt released over 200 suspects, after 4 days BH released hostages, d FG doesn’t need any negotiator for this #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
There are NO shortcuts to this crisis, as I said in my recent interview (/FvuLQn6DFN) Govt must change d tide to their favour
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
To release captives in a swap wt BH is not d same wt negotiating an end to this conflict. They must be two different things #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
According to BH, to forsake Sharia is (Kufr Al-Akbar) to retreat from Bama, Gwoza, Mubi etc is such Kufr, they will not #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
According to BH their brand of Sharia is superior to d constitutn therefore negotiation will be dictated by d later #WhatdoesBHwant
— Ahmad Salkida (@ContactSalkida) November 1, 2014
No govt can suspend its constitution. Therefore, d most realistic option is for d Nigerian Army to meet BH in d battle field #WhatdoeBHwant
