Boko Haram's Shekau Says Their Killings Is Victory From Allah

If this man Shekau is really alive then he needs psychiatric attention. The Boko Haram leader has claimed the responsibility for the daring December 20 raid on a military barracks in the North East in a new video.

The insurgents stormed the barracks in the town of Bama in a convoy of trucks before sunrise, opened fired on the soldiers inside then torched the compound. Several witnesses said the gunmen kidnapped soldiers as well as women and children.

“Our fighters stormed the Bama barracks,” Shekau boasted, while seated on a mat and flanked by a group of armed men.

“This is a victory from Allah,” said the wanted man after claiming to have destroyed “21 armoured tanks” and killed “multitudes” in the raid.

The military is yet to release a death toll from the barracks attack but sources say the figures are high.
