The leader of Boko Haram terrorist group, Ibrahim Shekau has begged the Chadian troops to leave his fighters alone, stressing that God will help the insurgents in their fight.
KanyiDaily recalls that on Saturday the Chadian President, Idriss Deby led his troops into the battlefield and destroyed five bases of the Boko Haram in the country.
The Chadian soldiers also recovered hundreds of weapons and killed many Boko Haram members in the bases they destroyed.
Reacting to the defeat in a viral audio, Shekau urged his fighters not to run despite suffering heavy casualties, adding that the attack against them was not approved by the Qur’an. He said:
“People of Chad, leave us alone, this operation is not approved by the Qur’an. It is not the will of the Prophet Muhammed but if you want to continue, God will help us too because he is bigger than you.
“To my fighters, take heart. It is I, Abubakar Shekau, your leader.”
