Abubakar Shekau Pleads To Release His Top Commander

The leader of the Islamic Sects Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau has responded to the capture of his top commander who was arrested by the Chadian Army. 

This comes after the Chadian army led by the country's president Iddris Deby recorded a huge success in their fight against Boko Haram at Kelkoua, bank of the Lake Chad.

The decision to embark on the attack came after over 90 Chadian soldiers were killed by the Boko Haram terrorists. 

During the attack, a top Boko Haram commander was captured while thousands of their weapons were confiscated by the Chadian Army at their weapon warehouse.  

Reacting to the incident, Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau in a recorded audio plead with his fighters not to give up yet despite the fact that many of them were killed. 

Speaking in Hausa language, Shekau said, "People of Chad, leave us alone, this operation is not approved by the Qur'an. It is not the will of the Prophet Muhammed but if you want to continue, God will help us too because he is bigger than you.

"To my fighters, take heart. It is I, Abubakar Shekau, your leader."
