Shekau resurfaces in new video, vows to enthrone Sharia in Africa

The leader of Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau, has appeared again in a new video.

Shekau, who seems to have nine lives, has turned himself into ‘abiku’ an evil child that keeps dying and returning to be born again.

While the Nigerian Army has at different occasions claimed that Shekau has been killed and at other times claimed that his Boko Haram has been defeated, both Shekau and his evil sect have continuously wrecked havoc on Nigerians.

In the video released Friday, Shekau was seen calling on his fighters not to give up on their insurgency war against democratic governments until they conquer most African countries and enthrone Sharia government in them.

He particularly mentioned Benin, Cameroon, Chad, Niger, Nigeria and Mali as countries in Africa the sect must conquer.

Also in the video, the leader of the terrorist group displayed identity cards, arms, ammunition and other equipment supposedly seized from the Cameroonian Army.

Insisting that his men will continue to fight in what they believe in, Shekau denied the recent attacks in Libya and threatened some world leaders.

The video is coming just few days after Boko Haram released a video where it murdered three men it claimed were spies working for the Nigerian government.
