[b]**SHEKAU SHOT, DEPOSED – BOKO
HARAM SPIRITUAL LEADERS**
BORNO—Sheikh Abubakar Shekau, leader of the
violent Islamic sect, Boko Haram, has reportedly
been shot and deposed by members of his own
sect, Boko Haram.
A new leader, Abu Zamira Mohammed, who is the
sect’s leader negotiating with the federal
government has been appointed new leader by
the group’s Shura Council.
The group also said that its ceasefire declaration
is working, pointing out that there has not been
any suicide bombing since the declaration. It
noted its condemnation of the Yobe massacre
where 40 students were killed, adding that some
politicians now commit murder and ascribe it to
Boko Haram
Shekau: AFP
On the Kano blasts last Monday, which led to the
death of about 45 people, the group blamed it on
federal government’s tardiness in responding to
the ceasefire agreement.
A joint report published yesterday, by Dr.
Stephen Davis, a conflict resolution expert and an
adviser to the last three Nigerian Presidents and
Phillip van Niekerk, President of Calabar Africa, a
strategic advisory company focusing on Africa,
and former Editor of South Africa’s Mail &
Guardian newspaper, in the US based online
newspaper, huffingtonpost.com, quoted one
Imam Liman Ibrahim, spiritual leader of Boko
Haram, as saying that the change in leadership
was prelude to peace negotiations with the
federal government.
A faction of Boko Haram has entered into a back-
channel dialogue with the government in the
search for an elusive peace to a conflict that has
seen multiple suicide bombings, attacks on
government buildings and churches, and has
claimed thousands of lives since 2011.
The Chairman of the Presidential Committee on
Dialogue and Restoration of Peace in the North-
East, Tanimu Turaki, last month announced that
his committee had reached an “understanding for
ceasefire” with members of the Jama’atu Ahlul
Sunnah Lih Da’awa Wal Jihad, JAS, more
commonly known as Boko Haram. JAS leadership
also nominated five people to enter peace
discussions with the Federal Government: Abu
Liman Ibrahim, Abu Zamira Mohammed, Abu
Adam Maisandari, Kassim Imam Biu and Mallam
Modu Damaturu. In its press statement, JAS said
the ceasefire would be in effect for 60 days, and
that during the period, any attacks in its name or
in the name of its leader, Imam Shekau, would be
bogus attacks.
Boko Haram has been in preliminary discussions
with government emissaries since the
organisation declared a ceasefire on June 26. Abu
Zamira Mohammed told the paper that his group
was still waiting for the Federal Government’s
response to the ceasefire declaration. The
contacts are still at an early, fragile stage, and
there is no guarantee that the talks will achieve a
breakthrough.
The writers said: “It has now come to light that
Boko Haram’s leadership sent representatives to
the capital Abuja on June 25, 2013 where they
revealed to the government that Shekau was no
longer their leader.”
Imam Liman Ibrahim, the spiritual leader of
Boko Haram, explained that the teaching of
Shekau was becoming increasingly harsh and
began to depart from the Holy Qu’ran.
“It was harsh, harsh, harsh,” Imam Liman said
when explaining the reasons for the change of
leadership.
“The beheadings, the killings, the recent death of
students … this is not the way of the Holy Qu’ran.
We could tolerate it no longer.
“Imam Liman explained that Shekau was given a
choice of joining the peace dialogue with the
Nigerian government, forming his own sect or
being killed. Several senior Boko Haram
commanders including Shekau’s Chief of Security
and personal bodyguard, Abdullahi Hassan, have
claimed that Shekau has since been shot in the
lower leg, thigh and shoulder,” the paper went
on.
The report said,” Shekau’s exact fate is not
known. A video clip recovered from a Boko
Haram camp in the Sambisa Forest Reserve in the
northeast Nigeria, raided by the military on May
16, shows Shekau limping, providing
confirmation of reports he had been shot.
“However, Shekau has been noticeably absent
from recent public statements and is not one of
the leaders who have engaged with government
emissaries. It had been presumed that Shekau
chose to voluntarily leave peace discussions in
the hands of Boko Haram’s leadership group,”
the duo wrote.
The JAS leadership were quoted as citing the
Qu’ran as their inspiration for seeking peace. “In
the Holy Qu’ran, Sura At Tauba: Wa-injanahuu-
Lisalmi Faji Nahlahaa, we are encouraged to seek
peace. The Holy Qu’ran also tells us it is good to
negotiate. Sura At Nisa Ayih: Wa-sulhu Haira.”
In June, the Boko Haram leadership demanded
that women held by the military under the state
of the emergency in the north be released.
President Jonathan authorised the release, which
opened the door to the ceasefire and the peace
dialogue.
The report also said “the Boko Haram leadership
has appointed Abubakar Babasani Ibn Yusuf as
spokesman to replace Zamirah. Babasani says the
leadership has been consulting all senior
commanders to assure compliance with the
ceasefire. He said commanders as far afield as
Niger, Chad, Sudan and Cameroon have agreed to
the ceasefire and discussions with the Nigerian
government on the subject of a peace deal.”
The June 26 ceasefire announcement has been
accompanied by an absence of suicide bombings,
giving credibility to the new leadership and their
intention of signing a peace accord. However, the
administration’s tardiness in responding to the
group’s ceasefire announcement is believed to
have precipitated three car bomb attacks in the
northern city of Kano this week that left at least
15 people dead.
Other attacks have persisted including the recent
horrific killings of students in Yobe where about
40 students were incinerated in their school
building. The latest Boko Haram statement is
highly critical of the Yobe deaths and denies
responsibility for the attacks.
The leadership blames such atrocities on
politicians in the northeast whom they accuse of
arming gangs and committing crimes in the name
of Boko Haram.
Shekau was deputy leader under Boko Haram
founder Imam Mohammed Yusuf who was
captured in July 2009 in fighting in the northeast
of Nigeria and executed by Nigeria’s Police force
in what appears to have been an extrajudicial
killing. The interrogation and Yusuf’s bullet-
riddled body were filmed on video.
Yusuf’s death radicalized the Boko Haram
leaders and led them to move underground and
identify more closely with Al Qaeda. Following
the founder’s killing, Shekau emerged as the new
leader of a revitalised Boko Haram in 2010 and
he and other commanders refocused the group
towards global jihad.
Shekau launched a series of well-planned
assassinations and suicide bombings that
targeted Nigerian police headquarters and the
UN offices in Abuja among many other locations.
Through a series of video appearances on
television stations, notably Al Jazeera, Shekau
emerged as the face of Boko Haram. Earlier this
year, the U.S. placed a $7-million bounty on his
head.
The military’s Joint Task Force has recently
arrested Alhaji Mala Othman, Chairman of the
opposition All Nigeria People’s Party in Borno
state, the epicentre of the insurrection, on
terrorism charges.
“Jonathan declared a state of emergency on May
14 and launched a military offensive that has
seen some successes. But reprisal attacks by
Boko Haram, including the freeing of 105 of their
members from prison, indicate that without a
peace deal, Boko Haram has the resources to
continue the fight,” the duo wrote.

this is genuinely fake. it's an all out attempt by northern politicians to have their own version of amnesty where they can struggle for positions, share the amnesty money, recruit fake boko haramites and deceive GEJ. I also suspect this to be the hand work of the present amnesty committee. they want to be credited with success by all means.

My advice is ;kill him(shekau) first, then we go for the new 'oga at th top' and we keep killing all °ƒ them till they finish
