The Nigerian Army on Wednesday stated that it does not know the whereabouts of the leader of the Boko Haramn Abubakar Shekau.
Addressing a press conference in Maiduguri, the head of the nation’s
counter-insurgency operation (Operation Lafiya Dole), Major General
Lucky Irabor said the claim that Shekau had relocated to somewhere in
Kala-Balge, in Borno North was a rumour that the military was yet to
substantiate.
He said the whereabouts of Abubakar Shekau was largely unknown to the
military, insisting that: “If I know where Shekau is now, I will grab
his balls.”
He, however, claimed the army had since defeated the Boko Haram insurgents terrorising the north eastern part of the country.
He said, “it is now time for all Nigerians to contribute in the
battle to win peace in the North East with the Nigerian troops having
won the war against insurgency for the nation.”
He also added that three suicide female bombers were killed at Madagali in Adamawa State.
