The Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) has released a video of how it executed 11 captives most of whom are Christians on Christmas day.
In a recent video published by conflict and terrorism reporter, Ahmad Salkida, 13 captives were seen begging President Muhammadu Buhari and the leadership of the Christian Association of Nigeria to come to their rescue.
According to Salkida, ten of the victims in the video are Christians while the remaining three are Muslims.
But in the execution video released by ISWAP, the terrorist claim they spared the lives of two out of 13 people that appeared in the earlier video.
It was gathered that the two, whose lives were spared are Muslims while others, most of who are Christians were executed.
Explaining the reason for the execution, ISWAP said,
Quote
“we killed them as a revenge for the killings of our leaders, including Abu bakr al-Baghdadi and Abul-Hasan Al-Muhajir in Iraq and Syria.”
However, the United Nation’s Secretary General Antonio Guterres has commiserated with Federal Government and Nigerians over the killings of the civilians.
In a statement by his spokesman, Mr. Stephane Dujarric on Wednesday, December 25, 2019, Guterres expressed his deepest condolences to the families of the victims.
The statement reads in part;
Quote
“The Secretary General is deeply concerned about reports that civilians have been executed, and others abducted, by armed group in northern Borno State, northeastern Nigeria. He expressed his deepest condolences to the families of the victims and reiterates the solidarity of the united Nations with the people and Government of Nigeria.”
Recall that ISWAP recently executed all the male humanitarian workers of Action Against Hunger abducted in July 2019.
The terrorist group said the execution of the aid workers was as a result of Federal Government’s insincerity and lack of respect for timeline.
