Barely a week after its leader, Abubakar Shekau appeared in a video looking subdued as he insinuated that the end has come for him, the Boko Haram sect on Friday released another recording where it foreclosed cessation of hostilities.
In a video clip posted on YouTube, Boko Haram maintained it was a potent fighting force as its fighters posed with AK-47s in front of Toyota Hilux pick-up trucks and a lorry mounted with a military cannon.
The video was markedly of better quality than the last one released by Shekau, and included Arabic subtitles with nine masked Boko Haram fighters standing on sandy ground in an unidentified desert location.
A masked man wearing camouflage said, reading a prepared script in Hausa, “You should know that there is no truce, there are no negotiations, there is no surrender.
“This war between us will not stop,” the character said.
