The United States has reacted to the alleged death of Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau.
The US said it won’t give the the $7million bounty placed on Shekau to the ISIS-allied Islamic State in West Africa Province (ISWAP) despite reports that the Boko Haram leader who was named a “specially designated global terrorist” on June 21, 2012, under executive order 13224, was “badly injured” or “died” while blowing up himself with a suicide vest to avoid being captured by ISWAP.
The US made this known via a tweet by its State Department Rewards for Justice Program.
“News reports today indicate that Boko Haram terrorist Abubakar Shekau blew himself up in a confrontation with ISIS affiliates.
“Hey, ISIS guys. To clarify: no – you are not eligible for the reward for information on his identity or location. That’s not how the program works,” it read.
