Nigeria's Defence Headquarters has described as “dream of the century”, the threat by Boko Haram Terrorists to capture and kill President Muhammadu Buhari. The Terrorist group made the threat in a new video released yesterday showing thousands of its members at three different locations during the Sallah celebrations.In the 12-minute, 58-second clip, the sect vowed that no amount of threat from President Buhari and the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt.-Gen. Tukur Buratai, could cow them. Reacting, DHQ dismissed the video as “cut and paste”, saying it is a complete sign of weakness and it poses no threat to Nigerians.The Acting Director, Defence Information, Brig.-Gen. Rabe Abubakar, pointed out that the video was the same the terrorist group used in 2014.Recall,the video posted on YouTube, showed a man identified as the assistant to Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau, saying the sect had not been defeated and will continue its reign of terror.The man, who spoke in Hausa, said: “[President] Buhari is saying that he will finish us. Let him know that before he said so, others said so before now and they couldn’t. So Buhari saying that he will finish us, he should know that by the grace of Allah, he cannot finish us. Rather, he will die, he will die, he will die. By the will of Allah, under the leadership of our leader (Shekau), we will capture Buhari with our hands”.
