A local Boko Haram leader, Ali Gaga, was reportedly executed for treason by his own companions. According to the Nigerian press, his brothers-in-arms in the Islamic State's West Africa Province had discovered he was planning to surrender. He is the second jihadist leader who has been known to be executed for a month.

Until recently, a trio headed the West African Province of Islamic State (Boko Haram). If number one, Abu Mossab al-Barnaoui, is still in place, his number two, Mamman Nur, would have been executed in August and his number three, Ali Gaga, last week.
