Nigerian troops might have scored a strategic victory in the current
battle against terrorists operating in the North East on September 17.
During a desperate attempt to capture Konduga in their delusion to
eventually marching on and capturing Maiduguri, the man who had been
mimicking Late Abubakar Shekau in recent videos might have been finally
killed.
According to senior military and intelligence sources, "it is getting
more certain that the terrorists' commander who has been mimicking
Shekau in those videos is the one killed in Konduga on September 17,
2014."........
The PRNigeria sources said the suspected demise of the
Boko Haram leader is responsible for the scattering of the sect members
in different independent locations in the neighbouring countries,
especially in Cameroon noticed in recent days.
The security
sources did not deny the suspicion but cautioned that "the process of
confirming that the dead body we have is the same as that character who
has been posing as Shekau is ongoing. He is definitely a prominent
terrorist commander. I don't want to say anything about this yet
please."
Another high ranking military source insisted that the
resemblance is too striking to be a coincidence. They cited his facial
marks, beards and teeth apart from the recovery by the Nigerian troops
of some of the Armoured Vehicles and Hilux jeeps that had featured in
previous videos of the prime suspect.
The officers assured that
the Defence Headquarters will soon address the nation after full
investigation of their latest discovery.
