Shekau appoints Muhammad as Boko Haram war commander, kills predecessor, two others

Factional leader of the Boko Haram sect, Abubakar Shekau, has appointed Abu Muhammad as the new Amirul Jaysh “Commander of War” for the faction he is leading after killing the former Commander, Abu Fatimah.

PRNigeria gathered that Shekau personally shot and killed Abu Fatimah, last week, for allegedly betraying their terrorist sect.

A source disclosed that two other senior Commanders were also eliminated by the ‘daredevil’ Shekau.

“Following an internal dispute, Shekau killed Abu Fatimah, one other Commander and Amirul Fi’ya, who is a son to a renowned Bama businessman, Alhaji Modu Katakauma,” the source said. (PRNigeria)
