Shekau’s Death!! Credit To Jonathan’s Government – Daily Times

Though yet unconfirmed, the reported death of Abubakar
Shekau, leader of the blood-thirsty Boko Haram sect
brings to focus the largely unacknowledged efforts of
the immediate past Federal Government, led by Dr.
Goodluck Jonathan.
Shekau had been reported dead in battles with troops
numerous times, only for him to resurface and taunt the
government and wreak more havocs.
However, towards the tail end of the Jonathan
administration, especially the six weeks of routing by the
military shortly before the last general election, reports
also filtered in that the cat with nine lives had finally
been killed.
From that period to date, the leader of the insurgents is
yet to make a public appearance.
On Wednesday this week, the Chadian leader Idris Derby
disclosed that Shekau may have indeed been killed and
that the insurgents have already appointed a new leader,
Mahamat Daoud, who he said is ready for talks with
Nigeria.
Even if he resurfaces, Shekau is already a damaged
leader for the group – credit for which should richly go
to the outgone Jonathan administration.
This is because the outgone administration had
accomplished almost 95 percent of the anti-terror job in
the fight against the insurgents.
It is on record that Jonathan’s administration spent a
whopping N4.62 trillion on national security in five years.
