The Nigerian military on Tuesday morning claims Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau has been finally injured in its “most unprecedented and spectacular air raid”.
In a statement by Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman, Acting Director Army Public Relations, the army said: “In what one could describe as the most unprecedented and spectacular air raid, we have just confirmed that as a result of the interdiction efforts of the Nigerian Air Force, some key leaders of the Boko Haram terrorists have been killed while others were fatally wounded.”
“The air interdiction took place last week Friday 19th August 2016, while the terrorists were performing Friday rituals at Taye village, Gombale general area within Sambisa forest, Borno State.”
“Those Boko Haram terrorist commanders confirmed dead include Abubakar Mubi, Malam Nuhu and Malam Hamman, amongst others. While their leader, so-called “Abubakar Shekau”, is believed to be fatally wounded on his shoulders.”
“Several other terrorists were also wounded,” the army said.
This is not the first time the Nigerian Army is claiming to have killed Mr. Shekau, but he keeps reappearing.
