Where on earth is Shekau ?

By his videos, we know him. But nobody has heard from Abubakar Shekau, leader of the Boko Haram sect, in the last two months, fuelling rumours that he may be… alive.
Perhaps only his recording studio and camera have been destroyed in recent military operations, and he is still setting up shop and props somewhere else before calling up AFP, his
preferred news agency, to pick his latest DVD.
Nobody dare claim that Shekau is dead. He has been reported dead on several occasions and has always resurfaced in his propaganda videos to
denounce the "infidels".
Recent military victories in his erstwhile strongholds have surprisingly not elicited any
video response from the boastful leader of the insurgents, but the authorities are cautious about
announcing his obituary again.
The Nigerian military breasted valour by freeing two states — Yobe and Adamawa — in northeast which were previously the atrocity domains of the
Boko Haram insurgents.
The valiant military also bulldozed the insurgents
out of Baga, Bama and Gworza in Borno state.
