Factional leader of Boko Haram terrorist group , Abubakar Shekau , has threatened to ‘‘deal ’’ with the Minister of Communications , Dr Isa Ali Pantami , for allegedly threatening to disrupt the activities of the sect by blocking their communication lines .
Shekau also mocked the President , Major General Muhammadu Buhari ( retd . ) , who he claimed is 80 years old for being booed in Maiduguri , the Borno state capital , last week .
The President was on a condolence visit to the government and people of the state over the killing of 30 stranded travellers by the insurgents .
The leader of the terrorist group claimed the video was created on Thursday , February 13, 2020 .
H said the message was targeted at those who pretend to be Muslims but are not .
Sunday PUNCH viewed the video on Saturday .
Speaking in a combination of Hausa , Arabic and Kanuri , the leader of the terrorist group also condemned western education and democracy which he said were alien to the Prophet of Islam and his followers .
Shekau said, “ I am speaking to those who pretend to be good Muslims but they are not . God will judge the hypocrites of Islam who use the platform of religion to achieve their selfish gains .
“ We don ’ t judge people until we are sure of what we have seen in them .
“ This video message is specifically released because of one man, who thinks he has knowledge and is knowledgeable about religion . Keep this message in your heart until you die if you don ’ t repent.
‘‘ From today, you will continue to live in sorrow , because I, Shekau , say so on behalf of Allah , Allah hears us , he is the judge in the hereafter .
“ This warning is for Isa Ali Panatami ; don ’ t think simply because you preach in English or because you are called a doctor, means you have knowledge of Islam . You know nothing .
‘‘Today you have become a minister , and you are feeling you can achieve your selfish ends . You must know that speaking English is not Islam .
“ You said you are going to block phone lines and other means of communication , to frustrate the activities of Boko Haram . But you must understand that we don ’ t depend on such to send out our messages .
‘‘Our messengers are like the angels of God . How dare you attempt to stop the works we are doing for the creator of the heavens and earth , simply because you have become a slave to the western world and the country . We pity you if you don ’ t repent .
“ I swear to Allah , you are nothing . Initially , we were not bothered about you , but now you have become a slave to the infidels ; repent now and become a good Muslim. If you don ’ t comply from now on , death will come to you , Isa Ali Pantami .
‘‘I call on my brothers in Africa , in Nigeria and everywhere to arise and take steps , what they did to ( Sheik ) Jafar is little . Anywhere you see Isa Ali Pantami , don ’ t spare him.
‘‘Isa Ali Pantami you are nothing ; even Jafar tried the same thing but we dealt with him; talk less of you that is nothing in Islam . And from today on , you would not have peace of mind because you have dared Allah , his prophet and the religion of Islam .
“ And you , President Buhari , you said you are almost 80 years old and you are busy going about , and now your people have started booing , right ? You just wait for your angels of death .
“ Buratai, ( the chief of army staff); you are tired right ? Wait for your day .
“ The journalists on BBC , Radio Germany ,
Radio France International , Dandal Kura , national dailies , be very careful in all that you say about us . We are not dealing with you people ; we are doing the work of Allah . Our trust is in Allah and not in human beings .
“ We have understood your evil plots against the religion of Allah , and your hypocrisy has been made known to us . Go on and plot against us in secret , we too shall converge in secret and plot against ( you ) and see who will take the day .
“ However , this video is purely created because of Isa Ali Pantami . And you Bulama Bukarti in England ; you heard my words in the past . All these names I mention are insignificant elements .
“ And you President Buhari , simply because some persons told you that they have killed our commanders, so now you are emboldened and you want to kill Shekau , right ? Who is Shekau , a small person to you ? But you are now in trouble Mr Buhari ; you are in big trouble . I am still here , that little boy that has defied the leaders of the world . I am still around , you just wait, it will soon be over before we all meet in the hereafter . ”
Pantami has however , said he is not afraid of the Boko Haram sect , despite threats by the group ’ s leader , Ibrahim Shekau .
The minister ’ s spokesperson , Uwa Suleiman , disclosed this while reacting to the threat when contacted by our correspondents .
Asked whether Pantami was afraid, and if he was going to take any precautionary special measures to protect himself , Suleiman said the minister was not afraid.
“ The minister is not scared, ” she said , noting that Pantami was aware of Shekau ’ s threat .
But Suleiman added that she would talk to the minister before saying more on the matter .
“ Let me talk to him and get back to you , ” she said .
She was yet to get back to our correspondent as of the time of filing this report .
The Army spokesman, Col Sagir Musa, and the Defence Headquarters spokesman, Brig Gen Nwachukwu , did not pick their calls when Sunday PUNCH sought to get their reactions.
