Boko Haram Kill Nigerian Air Force Officer
The dreaded Boko Haram insurgents have shown they are willing to kill anyone that comes against them as seen in a disturbing video shared by Sahara Reporters of a Nigerian Air Force officer being gruesomely murdered by Boko Haram sect in Borno State.
The victim, who was extensively interrogated before his gruesome killing, identified himself as Umar Abubakar, disclosed he was a member of Section 9, NAF, engaged in counter-insurgency measures against Boko Haram.
The sect after killing and beheading the deceased, paraded with his head as they jubilated as one of them used a mobile phone to film the gory scene.

In the video, the insurgents asked their victim to state his monthly pay to which he replied N40,000. He also disclosed that his commanding officer was a 2nd lieutenant. The insurgents displayed their victim's identity card, chanting that the world should know that Allah had given them an enemy.
One of the Islamist sect's leaders questioned the deceased in the video saying: "So you were sent to kill Boko Haram? And you are serving the state instead of Allah? We are members of Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati Wal-Jihad and Allah has given us an infidel today".
The Nigerian Air Force officer thinking his proclaiming himself as a Muslim of Jama'atu Izalal extraction would save him from being killed was, however, wrong as the insurgents, who spoke Hausa mixed with Kanuri, turned down his plea.
Their leader said: "No amount of prayers will save you, we will judge you according to the Quran."
To the chants of Allahuakubar, the insurgents decapitated the hapless officer while leaving their victim's headless body on on the ground in a pool of blood, his hands tied with a rope.
