The controversial leader of the Boko Haram terror group Abubakar Shekau on Tuesday declared the duo of President Goodluck Jonathan and his 2015 arch-rival, Muhammadu Buhari as infidels who cannot rule Nigeria. He declared that the war he is waging would soon bring democracy to an end.
Mr. Shekau who spoke in a 36 minutes video released via youtube also warned that more killings and attacks would be recorded in the days to come as he boasted that the quantum of ammunition his group has so far seized from the Nigerian army especially in Baga would be enough to prosecute a war against Nigeria.
The man whom Nigeria military authority had declared dead on three occasions in the last two years said his group would soon bring Nigeria to its knees and warned the governments of the neighbouring countries, comprising of Chad, Cameroon and Niger of similar attacks. Mr. Shekau who appeared in the video standing in front of three patrol jeeps mounted with anti-air assault guns was dressed in his usual military khaki with an AK47 hanging from his shoulder across his chest.
He delivered his long speech, first in Arabic which lasted for 17 minutes and then in Hausa for about seven minutes. He ended his speech by burning a Nigerian flag, and replacing it with his group’s flag that had a black background and white inscription.

@Dareper... How you doing? I get on this site everyday to get updated but keep away from commenting. I noticed though, that you are one of the most popular guy on here,if not the most popular. Ajanni is nowhere to be found, I'm sure you guys frustrated him out of here. lol. Anyway, back the the subject matter. Something I don't understand, from your comment this morning, I understand you are blaming our government for not doing anything about Boko Haram, but then from all your past comments, I can say for sure that you are a GEJ fan and you would prefer him to run the country again, and then next, you want Biafra.. Where do you really stand? Please answer.
