The video, which was posted on January 5, is directly addressed
to Cameroon’s President Paul Biya after repeated fighting between
militants and troops in the country’s far north.
“Oh Paul Biya, if you don’t stop this, your evil plot, you will taste what has befallen Nigeria … Your troops cannot do anything to us,” Shekau said in Arabic.
Shekau, in military fatigues and green rubber boots, speaks for more than 17 minutes in the video, flanked by four masked Boko Haram fighters, two of whom hold the militants’ black flags.
