The leader of the Boko Haram sect, Abubakar Shekau, has boasted that nobody can arrest him.
He made the declaration in response to reports of the manhunt for him and his followers by the government.
Shekau boasted that security operatives can’t arrest him because he was doing God’s work.
The Nigerian Army had on November 11, 2020, released 86 names, including that of Shekau and other members of the sect as those wanted for terrorism in Nigeria.
However, Shekau, in his latest 30 minutes video, said God would protect him.
He also warned that the war against the government would continue even after him.
“Nobody can apprehend me because I’m doing God’s work. He will protect me like those doing similar work and seeking His protection.
“I’m very sure God will protect my commanders. We are all doing God’s work”, he said.
Shekau also spoke on the members of Boko Haram who withdrew from the group and joined the amnesty program in the northeast.
“They have left the fold of religion,” he said of the ex-members.
He, however, said he and his men would never consider such a path in their lifetime, putting aside any chance of reconciliation between his group and the state.
